Lima Business Pulse
- Culture Professional but values personal rapport. Directness is appreciated but should be polite.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal time for calls is 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Peruvians value personal trust and long-term relationships. Traffic in Lima is notoriously bad, so virtual meetings are often preferred. Business is professional but includes a warm, personal element.
Sydney Business Pulse
- Culture Relatively relaxed but professional. Early starts are common to maximize daylight.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Due to the significant time difference with Europe and the US, early mornings (8:30 AM - 10:00 AM) are often dedicated to international syncs. For domestic calls, late mornings are best. Be mindful that many Australians start and end their day earlier than their Northern Hemisphere counterparts.
