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.

Toronto Business Pulse

  • Culture Multicultural, polite, and professional. Similar to NYC but generally more reserved.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Canadians value punctuality and a polite, reserved professional tone. It is similar to NYC but with slightly more emphasis on consensus and less on aggressive directness. Avoid calling after 4:30 PM when the work day is concluding.
