CQ Pro Assessment by Cultural Intelligence Center: This assessment measures an individual’s capability for working and relating across cultures by measuring skills in four distinct areas

1. CQ Drive: Level of interest, persistence, and confidence during multicultural interactions.
2. CQ Knowledge: Understanding about how cultures are similar and different.
3. CQ Strategy: Awareness and ability to plan for multicultural interactions.
4. CQ Action: Ability to adapt when relating and working in multicultural contexts.

In addition, the CQ Pro Assessment provides individuals with a mapping of their preferences on 10 cultural values.

1. Individualism vs. Collectivism
2. Low vs. High Power Distance (hierarchy)
3. Low vs. High Uncertainty Avoidance (risk-taking)
4. Cooperative vs. Competitive
5. Short Term vs. Long Term
6. Direct vs. Indirect
7. Being vs. Doing
8. Universalism vs. Particularism
9. Non-Expressive vs. Expressive
10. Linear vs. Non-Linear (attitude to time)

This offer includes:

• Report with results on the 4 CQ Capabilities and 13 CQ Sub-dimensions
• Development & Action Plan
• Personal Cultural Value Preferences profile
• 2-hour, 1:1 debrief to go through the report results and create an action plan for addressing the most pressing and relevant challenges

There's an option to just assess Cultural Values – please email me to learn more.

If it's your first meeting with me, we'll make it 1,5 hours to give us enough time to explore your current situation, context and goals first, before we jump into coaching mode
§ If we've already worked together or had a 30-minute intro call, the session will last the usual 1 hour
§ Some common topics that clients bring to my sessions are:

• How to work with a colleague who does X? (It may or may not be cultural, by the way!)
• I feel like I'm on an emotional rollercoaster – what can I do about it?
• I used to be so effective at work back home, and now it just all feels so difficult – what can i do?
• Should I stay or move home or elsewhere?
• What to do if my partner is not happy abroad, but I am?
• I know what I'm supposed to be doing, but I'm not doing it! (It can be anything from diet and sports to connecting with new people or taking action to work towards goals. Whatever is stopping you – we'll untangle it together!)

§ During this one-off session, we don't aim at solving your challenge completely within an hour (can you imagine if it was THAT simple?), but what we do aim for is creating more clarity around the challenge and way forward (including steps to take within a week of our session!), or creating an insight which will unlock you for further action.

I work with my signature ABROAD Method where we focus on all the aspects relevant to creating your own success and confidence abroad.

During our initial meeting we establish which of the below are the most crucial for you to reach your goals and we will craft a programme which will best fit your needs, while covering the full complexity of working and living abroad – from your career, through your relationships to your emotions and thoughts.

Awareness of self (cultural profile assessment, uncovering values, coaching)

Breaking mental blocks (working through limiting beliefs, dealing with fears and doubts and negative emotions)

Roadmap to success (setting the direction and plan forward to meet the one we had in our heads when we moved abroad)

Options and opportunities (exploring options and ways to get there)

Action taking (accountability & partnership from me to help you take actions on your goals and try new strategies

Determination to keep moving forward (keeping that motivation going and working through new blocks and goals as they appear)
