What is CQ? Cultural Intelligence (CQ®) is a person's capability to function effectively in a variety of cultural contexts –

both internationally and domestically.

In our own cultures, we usually have an idea of what is going on around us because we have a wealth of

information, most of which subconscious, that helps us make sense of what we experience and observe.

When we interact with individuals who have a different cultural background, the same cues may mean

something entirely different.

CQ CAPABILITIES There are four primary CQ capabilities:

Development Plan Your CQ is not fixed. With some simple but intentional goals and strategies, you can enhance your CQ. The

next few pages give you a chance to reflect on your CQ capabilities, your multicultural challenges and

opportunities, and your CQ feedback. Then you will have a chance to develop an action plan.

YOUR CQ Describe your self-rated CQ scores in your own words. __________________________________________________________________________________

__________________________________________________________________________________

PRESENT CHALLENGES What intercultural challenges are you currently facing? (e.g., working with someone who has different cultural values, cultural misunderstandings, etc.)

__________________________________________________________________________________

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES What multicultural or global opportunities do you want to pursue? (e.g., global leadership, teaching a diverse population of students, multicultural management, etc.)

__________________________________________________________________________________

YOUR STRONGEST CQ CAPABILITIES Your strongest CQ capabilities are based on your self-rated scores in comparison to the worldwide median,

not simply based on the highest numerical scores.

Your top two self-rated CQ capabilities are: CQ ACTION AND CQ DRIVE

Write down one example of how you have used your CQ Action or CQ Drive in the last 6 months.

__________________________________________________________________________________

HIGHEST SELF-RATED SUBDIMENSIONS:

Intrinsic Interest Deriving enjoyment from culturally diverse experiences.

Speech Acts Modifying the manner and content of communications (e.g., direct, indirect).

Nonverbal Modifying nonverbal behaviors (e.g., gestures, facial expressions).

How, if at all, does your current role allow you to use your highest self-rated subdimensions?

__________________________________________________________________________________

YOUR WEAKEST CQ CAPABILITIES Your weakest CQ capabilities are based on your self-rated scores in comparison to the worldwide median,

not simply based on the lowest numerical scores.

Your bottom two self-rated CQ capabilities are: CQ STRATEGY AND CQ KNOWLEDGE

Write down one example of how your CQ Strategy or CQ Knowledge may have caused problems for you in the last 6 months.

LOWEST SELF-RATED SUBDIMENSIONS:

Extrinsic Interest Gaining benefits from culturally diverse experiences.

Values & Norms Knowledge about values, social interaction norms, and religious beliefs.

How might your level of CQ on these subdimensions be holding you back from greater effectiveness

working in culturally diverse contexts?

Research Basis of CQ THE RESEARCH BASIS FOR ASSESSING CULTURAL INTELLIGENCE Cultural Intelligence is conceptualized as a multi-dimensional construct based on application of Robert

Sternberg's integrative theoretical framework of different "loci" of intelligence. The dimensions of Cultural

Intelligence represent qualitatively different aspects of the overall capability to function and manage

effectively in culturally diverse settings.

CULTURAL INTELLIGENCE IS … Cultural Intelligence is a malleable capability that can be enhanced by multicultural experiences, training and

self-awareness programs, travel and education.

Cultural Intelligence is distinct from stable individual differences such as personality, which describe

what a person typically does across time and across situations.

Cultural Intelligence is also different from emotional intelligence because it focuses specifically on

capabilities in multicultural contexts.

Cultural Intelligence has predictive validity over and above demographic characteristics, personality, general

mental ability, emotional intelligence, cross-cultural adaptability inventory, rhetorical sensitivity, cross-cultural

experience, and social desirability.

The Cultural Intelligence Scale has excellent psychometric properties.

Published scholarly research demonstrates the factor structure of the scale is stable across samples,

across time, and across cultures.

In addition, self-rated scores are positively correlated with observer rated scores, and multi-trait multi-

method analysis supports the convergent and discriminant validity of the scales.

Reliabilities of the four factors and subdimensions exceed the standard cut-off of .70.

Most important, research demonstrates that cultural intelligence predicts adjustment, well-being, cultural

judgment and decision-making, and task performance in culturally diverse settings.

Below are definitions of the ten cultural value orientations.

Cultural Values

CULTURAL VALUE ORIENTATIONS Individuals have personal preferences or individual cultural value orientations. Sometimes individual

orientations reflect one's nationality or ethnicity but not always. In this section of the report, you will see your

personal orientation on ten cultural value dimensions (defined above) compared to the tendencies of ten

cultural clusters (defined below).

CULTURAL CLUSTERS The cultural value orientations defined above can be grouped into cultural clusters where you are likely to

find a significant presence of a specific cluster of cultural values. These clusters represent the 10 largest

cultural groupings in the world.

Anglo Australia, Canada, New Zealand, U.K., U.S., etc.

Arab Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., etc.

Confucian Asia China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, etc.

Eastern Europe Albania, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Mongolia, Poland, Russia, etc.

Germanic Europe Austria, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands, etc.

Latin America Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, etc.

Latin Europe France, French-speaking Canada, Italy, Portugal, Spain, etc.

Nordic Europe Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, etc.

Sub-Saharan Africa Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, Zambia, Zimbabwe, etc.

Southern Asia India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, etc.

NOTE: The countries are NOT the clusters themselves. They are simply places where you are likely to find a significant presence of the cultural clusters.
