Marseille Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic, relationship-heavy, and influenced by its status as a major Mediterranean port.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Business culture in Marseille is relational; spend time on introductions and building trust. Directness is appreciated, but it should be polite. Avoid the 12:30-2 PM lunch break strictly. Personal presence is highly valued.
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.
