Synchronization Context

Syncing between Riyadh and Tokyo is challenging due to the 6 hours offset. Teams should prioritize asynchronous communication or specific 'handover' windows.

Riyadh Business Pulse

Culture Formal and traditional. Business hours are influenced by prayer times.
Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
Pro Tip The work week is Sunday to Thursday. Call between 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM. Avoid calling during the five daily prayer times (Salat). Business is highly relational and hierarchical; always address senior decision-makers with appropriate respect and titles.

Tokyo Business Pulse

Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi Kōkan" (business card exchange) are central.
Lunch Break Strictly 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
Pro Tip The most effective window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs. Late afternoon calls (4 PM - 5:30 PM) are also acceptable, but ensure you follow formal protocols and hierarchy if multiple stakeholders are on the line.
