- Pro TipThe work week is Sunday through Thursday. Do not call on Friday or Saturday (Shabbat). Best times are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Israelis are famously direct and informal; do not be surprised if people interrupt or speak passionately—it is seen as a sign of engagement, not rudeness.
Tokyo Business Pulse
