The CQ® Assessment

Most modern culture or personality teams only focus on fixed traits. There is no growth or development, just self-awareness.

The CQ Assessment measures a developable skill in Cultural Intelligence (CQ) along with your behavioral preferences. Knowing your CQ is the first step toward adjusting your approach, enhancing communication, and fostering more authentic relationships.

Backed by over 1,000 academic papers and studies, CQ is a critical part of setting yourself apart in today’s globalized world of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and innovation.
