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.

Zurich Business Pulse

  • Culture Precise, formal, and highly efficient. Values quality and punctuality above all.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Punctuality in Switzerland is non-negotiable; being even one minute late is considered a serious lack of professionalism. Keep your discussion focused, data-driven, and highly organized. Avoid calling during the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
