Synchronization Context

Syncing between Phoenix and Zurich is challenging due to the 8 hours offset. Teams should prioritize asynchronous communication or specific 'handover' windows.

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.

Zurich Business Pulse

  • Culture Precise, formal, and highly efficient. Values quality and punctuality above all.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Punctuality in Switzerland is non-negotiable; being even one minute late is considered a serious lack of professionalism. Keep your discussion focused, data-driven, and highly organized. Avoid calling during the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
