CQ Pre/Post Assessment

This tool is designed to assess the four factors and 13 sub dimensions of Cultural Intelligence (CQ) as well as individual Cultural Value (CV) orientations and to compare any changes in CQ scores over time. Individuals take the assessment twice and receive two personalized feedback reports which compare pre and post CQ scores and the worldwide norms.
