Why this Course is Important

Over the past decade many organisations have been training their managers and employees to understand, appreciate and develop their cultural intelligence quotient (CQ). Cultural intelligence is directly linked to emotional intelligence, allowing people with higher levels of cultural intelligence to better understand, respect and be attuned to the values, beliefs, attitudes and communication of people from different cultures.

Being more culturally aware and developing cultural intelligence will allow you to use this knowledge to help you relate to others from different backgrounds with greater empathy and understanding.

If you interact with people from culturally diverse backgrounds and you would like to learn more about raising your own cultural intelligence, then make sure Developing Your Cultural Intelligence training session is in your calendar.
