Luanda Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-driven and growing rapidly. Oil and gas industry influence.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM. Personal presence and relationship building are the foundations of business here. Portuguese is the primary language for professional dealings. Be patient with decision-making processes and invest time in initial rapport.
Seoul Business Pulse
- Culture Extremely hardworking and hierarchical. "Pali-pali" (hurry-hurry) culture drives rapid growth.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. South Koreans value speed ("Pali-pali") and expect rapid responses. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour strictly. Ensure you follow hierarchical protocols if senior leaders are present, and never arrive (digitally or in-person) late for a call.
