Phoenix Business Pulse

Culture Practical and influenced by the tech and aerospace sectors.
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
Pro Tip Always double-check the time! Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so its offset with the rest of the US changes twice a year. Reach out between 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM. The culture is practical and direct, typical of the growing Mountain West tech hub.

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.
