CQ in Organizational and Work Contexts
Organizational effectiveness is increasingly dependent on people who can be effective and respectful in a variety of cultural situations. For a long time, this aspect of effectiveness was very difficult to measure. Now, using the only evidence-based assessment of cultural intelligence (CQ), you can assess and develop CQ for those in your organization.
We offer the following online assessments and personalized feedback reports for public, private, and non-profit organizations. Assessments can be used on a one-time stand-alone basis or can be done before and after training sessions.
CQ Multi-Rater Assessment
This provides the most accurate assessment and feedback on CQ because it combines self-assessment with observer-assessments. Participants and their observers complete online surveys, and participants receive a 20-page personalized feedback report that includes- Personal Scores for each of the 4 CQ capabilities (Drive, Knowledge, Strategy, Action) as well as scores for the sub-dimensions for each capability
- Observer Feedback on CQ capabilities
- Comparison of participant scores with the CQ worldwide norms
- Feedback on Individual Cultural Value Orientations (e.g. personal preferences on values such as individualism vs. collectivism, low vs. high context, etc.)
- Reflection questions to guide sense-making and interpretation of the feedback
- Suggestions for creating a personal developmental plan, with ideas for ways to use CQ strengths and specific action steps for improving CQ capabilities.

Facilitators and organizations can request CQ Summary Reports with aggregated results for a group of participants.Summary reports include demographic characteristics of participants, comparison of participant scores with the CQ worldwide norms, distribution of participant scores (low-moderate-high), and interpretative observations and implications.
