The Livermore model of Cultural Intelligence is now complete: Drive, Knowledge, Strategy, and Action. Listen to the book review in season one, and then parts one and two for a deeper dive on practicing cultural intelligence. Consider adding cultural intelligence to emotional intelligence emphases and see more benefit in cross-cultural interactions. The bottom line is this, leaders: it is easy to grow. There is much we can to do improve our serve -- first to self, then to others, then to entities. A little practice consistently goes a long way. Give these thoughts a try, and add the Livermore book to your libraries. Take the quiz to determine your current CQ, practice some, and then take the quiz again. Let's plan for cross-cultural interactions and when we show up, be willing to learn and receive feedback.
