There is a new way to think about IQ based on a multiple intelligences model. Cultural Intelligence (CQ) is an academically validated model to prepare you to be a smarter global citizen. Developed by a community of international scholars from the United States and Singapore, CQ provides both a framework and assessment to improve your effectiveness in today’s globalized world.

Join recognized worldwide expert and one of the founders of this model, Dr. David Livermore, as he discusses CQ and how you can apply it in your own life.
