CQ ASSESSMENTS & CULTURAL ANALYTICS
Visualizing culture, values and behavior for true organizational transformation
What are Assessments?
Cultural nuances and value-driven differences are often invisible. In many organizations, friction is dismissed as a ‘gut feeling’ or a ‘personal issue’.
CQ Lab uses globally recognized frameworks and diagnostics to map the current state of individuals, teams, and the entire organization. By replacing intuition with objective data, we identify the gap between your current reality and your ideal state, creating a clear roadmap for behavioral and structural change.
Hofstede CWQ Assessment
Quantifying Culture: Driving Performance Through Structural Insight
The Hofstede CWQ Assessment identifies how cultural backgrounds influence decision-making and behavioral patterns within your organization.
Based on Professor Geert Hofstede’s globally recognized 6-Dimension Model, this tool moves cultural differences from the realm of intuition into a manageable strategic domain. In global or diverse environments, cultural assumptions left unaddressed often lead to decision-making delays and friction.
This assessment clarifies these invisible hurdles, providing a common language to improve communication and organizational productivity.
KEY OUTCOMES
→ Visualize decision-making and behavioral tendencies for individuals and teams
→ Identify the root causes of misalignment and friction driven by cultural gaps
→ Enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of cross-border communication
→ Improve leadership effectiveness in complex, global environments
→ Build a common language to strengthen collaboration across the organization
USE CASES
→ Supporting the adaptation and development of expatriates for success
→ Strengthening global team management and leadership
→ Facilitating collaboration and organizational synergy with international talent
→ Driving diversity and inclusion through data-driven strategies
→ Developing the global competencies of next-generation executives
IDI® Assessment
Measuring Competence, Driving Growth: The Intercultural Development Inventory
The IDI (Intercultural Development Inventory) is a developmental assessment designed to measure and build ‘Intercultural Competence’. Rather than focusing on rigid knowledge, the IDI evaluates how individuals and teams perceive cultural differences and translate that perception into action.
Based on the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC), it identifies your current developmental stage, visualizing the gap between ‘perceived capability’ and ‘actual adaptation’. This objective data serves as a catalyst for tailored growth plans, moving your organization from awareness to high-level behavioral integration.
KEY FEATURES
→ Visualize the present developmental stage of intercultural competence for individuals and teams
→ Identify the disconnect between how you think you navigate culture and how you actually perform
→ Design specific action plans based on the user’s unique developmental stage
→ Improve the ability to shift perspective and behavior in complex global environments
→ Elevate the overall intercultural management capacity of the entire organization
USE CASES
→ Developing expatriates and high-potential international leaders
→ Maximizing performance in multinational and diverse teams
→ Advanced Diversity & Inclusion initiatives through measurable growth
→ Supporting organizational change and cultural alignment (including M&A)
→ Measuring the impact of training through Before/After assessments
