The Cultural Intelligence Center and their programs are so valuable in the world that we have been living in, but especially considering the social climate that we live in currently. The resources and programs have so much value to add to personal and individual growth of cultural awareness and intelligence. I would highly recommend organizations consider introducing their leaders and workforce to this work!
