Tehran Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-heavy and formal. Respect for hierarchy is paramount.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The work week is Saturday to Wednesday. Thursday is often a half-day. Call between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM. Iranian business culture is very formal and involves "Taarof" (a complex system of etiquette); be patient, polite, and avoid rushing into business without proper greetings.
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.
