London Business Pulse

  • Culture London business culture is generally formal but collaborative. "Flexi-Fridays" are common in the summer.
  • Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Avoid calling after 4:30 PM on Fridays as many offices wind down early for the weekend. Mid-week (Tuesday to Thursday) between 10 AM and 4 PM is the "Golden Window" for reaching decision-makers. Always start with a brief polite inquiry about their day before diving into business.

Paris Business Pulse

  • Culture Values work-life balance and high-quality debate. Business lunches can be longer than in NYC or London.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Never call between 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM; this "sacred" lunch window is for refueling and relationship building. Tuesday and Thursday mornings are typically the most productive for reaching senior management. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
