Developing your Cultural Intelligence (CI) & Leading in a Global Organisation

Training course overview

Cultural Intelligence (CI) is the ability to be able to work with people from any culture effectively. A person that possesses a high CI will be able to enter a culture that they have no experience of and can observe and forge relationships with people; even without being able to speak the language.

Being able to relate and work effectively across cultures is a required skill in all fields, ranging from leadership, engineering, and finance, to accounting and marketing. The higher your CI, the more likely you will experience success working in a diverse, global world.

This highly participative 5-day Coventry Academy Training Course covers the meaning and psychology of culture and will increase your Cultural Intelligence (CI). This is a training course you cannot afford to miss.
