Montreal Business Pulse
- Culture Creative, bilingual, and values professional etiquette with a European flair.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Montreal is a bilingual city; always start with "Bonjour" or "Bonjour-Hi." Business culture is sophisticated and values a bit more "flair" and social connection than in Toronto. Punctuality and professional etiquette are highly respected.
Moscow Business Pulse
- Culture Direct, formal, and results-oriented. Trust is earned through performance and reliability.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 11:00 AM and 5:30 PM. Avoid the 1 PM - 2 PM lunch slot. Russian business culture can be very direct and formal; do not mistake a lack of small talk for a lack of interest. Be prepared with solid data and a clear "bottom line" for your discussion.
