Tokyo Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi KΕkan" (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.
Wellington Business Pulse
- Culture Professional, collaborative, and influenced by government and growing tech sector.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Wellington is the capital; expect high professional standards and a focus on collaboration. It is also a very creative and tech-savvy city. Maintain a warm but professional and organized tone. Avoid calling late on Friday afternoon.
