Business etiquette in Uganda

Hello everybody,

As you know, professional habits may differ from one country to another. In order to help newly arrived expats better understand their new professional environment in Uganda, we warmly encourage you to share information and insights about the do's and don'ts in the workplace.

For instance, are there office manners? How do you greet your co-workers? Do you greet your management differently? Is there a dress code? Particular rules to observe? Maybe a professional body language?

On another level, what is key for a successful professional meeting? Are there any steps to follow? How do you a start a negotiation?

In other words, what are the most important things to know for a successful professional integration in Uganda?

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience!

There is some etiquette differences between India and Uganda.
Ugandan people like to be greeted first and Even African people all of Africa.
We need to ask them regarding how was their day or night.
Interesting.
They can feel bad if we ask them directly about business.
They want us to ask about their well being first and talk business secondly.
