Do you wonder how effective your diversity training is in changing attitudes and behaviors?
Research shows that level of intercultural competence determines success in businesses and organizations. The Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) is a valid, reliable instrument measuring people's basic orientations toward cultural difference, which indicates the capacity for exercising intercultural competence.
The IDI identifies the issues that are limiting or facilitating the development of intercultural competence. Developed by Drs. Milton Bennett and Mitchell Hammer, internationally recognized specialists in the intercultural relations field, the questions were created from several years of observation and research and are based on statements made by men and women living in 29 different countries, across a full age spectrum.
The IDI can help you:
• Increase insights into self and others
• Understand developmental issues related to intercultural sensitivity in organizations and
awork teams
• Identify training needs
• Develop awareness needed for a move to a new culture (multinational or diverse domestic
aenvironment)
The new online IDI can be taken in 15 minutes or less. I will then schedule a half hour phone debriefing/coaching session regarding the results. Your results will be emailed directly to you. All results are confidential. The IDI can also be administered to groups anonymously to further understanding of developmental issues they are experiencing and predict issues they may confront in the future.
