Cultural Intelligence Training

Cultural Intelligence Training is designed to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate and thrive in diverse cultural environments. Cultural Intelligence, comprised of four dimensions – CQ Drive, CQ Knowledge, CQ Strategy, and CQ Action – enables individuals to function effectively across cultures and adapt their behavior accordingly.

Understanding Cultural Intelligence Dimensions Participants in this training will gain a deeper understanding of each dimension of Cultural Intelligence and its role in building cultural competence. They will explore how these dimensions – CQ Drive (motivation), CQ Knowledge (cognition), CQ Strategy (meta-cognition), and CQ Action (behavior) – work together to enhance their ability to interact and collaborate across cultures.

CQ Drive

CQ Drive is the foundational dimension of Cultural Intelligence, involving developing a genuine interest and motivation to engage with diverse cultures.

They will acquire meta-cognitive skills to anticipate and navigate cultural challenges, enabling them to build rapport and establish meaningful connections across cultures.

CQ Action

Putting cultural intelligence into action is essential for effective cross-cultural communication and collaboration.
