What our participants say:
“This course has helped me understand the reasons for previous intercultural interactions I have had through work and has helped me understand the deeper drivers behind the behaviours due to enhanced CQ and intercultural competencies. This understanding will be invaluable during future deployments – I really liked that the focus was broad so I can apply the tools anywhere I end up” ADG, Project manager
