Our Partners
Cultural Intelligence (CQ) is critical to setting yourself apart in today’s globalised world. CQ is your capability to effectively interact with people across all types of cultural differences, including nationality, race, generation, and job function, going beyond traditional cultural sensitivity and awareness.
The Cultural Intelligence Centre is an innovative, research-based training and consulting firm that draws upon empirical findings to help organisations and individuals around the world assess and improve their CQ. Based on over 20 years of research across more than 150 countries, we know that there are four key capabilities which need to be developed in order to have effective and meaningful interactions:
- CQ Drive – the curiosity and motivation to work with others.
- CQ Knowledge – the understanding of what makes groups similar and different, without resorting to cultural stereotypes.
- CQ Strategy – the ability to plan for interactions in light of differences
- CQ Action – the ability to flex and adapt behaviour when the situation requires it.
Through workshops, assessments, e-learning programmes, coaching and more, we provide you with the tools to reap the benefits of CQ and: enhance performance and collaboration within a team, reduce conflict and turnover in an organisation, and improve adjustment and adaptability in your personal interactions.
