One of the largest public school systems in the US wanted to create a more inclusive culture because they are a diverse district and wanted to offer equitable treatment for all members of the community.
School administrators viewed addressing racial equity as a strategic priority and made a commitment to change the culture of the district by training staff, enacting new norms, and actively measuring progress and accountability.
School administrators worked with the CQ Center to design a customized program using Cultural Intelligence (CQ) as a strategy to address racial equity and create a more culturally intelligent campus community. Over 100 facilitators were certified in the school district, and they subsequently assessed and trained over 22,000 employees on how to apply and enhance their CQ.
