the cultural intelligence approach explained
Most cultural competence programs focus on teaching information about different cultures (e.g. Indians versus Germans; Millennials vs. Boomers; Marketing vs. Engineering). Cultural intelligence takes a different approach. Based on nearly 30 years of research across 100 countries, we know that there are four capabilities that need to be developed in order to relate and work effectively with teams of people from different backgrounds.
Cultural Intelligence begins with CQ Drive—the motivation and confidence needed to work well with others. Next is CQ Knowledge—understanding the kinds of differences that describe one group versus the next, without resorting to stereotyping specific cultures. Third is CQ Strategy—learning how to plan effectively and remain aware in the moment. And finally, CQ Action—being able to adapt behavior when the situation requires it.
Cultural Values (CVs) are preferences people have for how they approach life and work. We measure these values to indicate how people prefer to interact, communicate, plan, and complete tasks. By starting with an awareness of our own preferences and those of others, we can take the first step in applying our Cultural Intelligence to plan and flex accordingly.
Our Culturally Intelligent Teams program improves performance of diverse teams by increasing self & team awareness, developing the motivation to work together effectively, and applying actionable real-world strategies.
how to get started
When your teams perform, your business does too.
Working in a group or team has always presented challenges, and in today’s post pandemic world many of those challenges have grown in complexity when you factor in elements like hybrid working environments and virtual teams.
Why not take an opportunity to bring your teams together (virtual or in person) to tackle real-life challenges using the evidence based CQ framework? Those teams who participate in our CQ for Teams workshop feel better equipped to create shared processes and norms, which are the foundation of building a highly functioning team.
