CQ Model

The CQ (Culturally Intelligent) Model is a framework that helps individuals understand and adapt effectively across different cultures. It involves four key components: Cultural Awareness (recognizing differences), Cultural Knowledge (understanding customs and norms), Cross-Cultural Skills (adapting communication and behavior), and Cultural Motivation (being genuinely interested and open to intercultural interactions). Together, these elements enable people to navigate cultural diversity professionally and personally, fostering better communication, collaboration, and respect in multicultural settings.
