Is your culture 'warm' or 'cold'?
Cultures are often categorized as either 'warm' or 'cold'.
It is not a negative thing for either - it just tends to refer to the climates that these cultures originate from.
So, warm cultures focus on relationships above tasks/work, and don't tend to worry about time.
Cold cultures tend to value efficiency and respecting other people's time.
Warm cultures are more spontaneous, for example, in hospitality, and cold cultures prefer planning.
Sometimes, cities are seen to have cold cultures, and rural areas in the same country are seen to be warm.
There is obviously a lot more to this, but, based just on the above, where does your culture fit in?
