Different countries have different rules on doing business. When there is a chance for you to go abroad for a business purpose, it is best to be clear about the rules and customs.
In Brazil
Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (especially women) with light kisses.
Business meetings sometimes start later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can last for hours there's no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Brazilians are social, preferring face-to-face communication to mails or phone calls.
In Singapore
Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. This is because arriving late is considered impolite.
In Switzerland
The Swiss call each other by their last name. They are also respectful of private lives.
For example, asking about a lady's age or how much they make a month is seen impolite. Being on time is required. Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They al-so have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree.
