How
to
Take
the
CCQ
Assessment
1. Recognise
that
it’s
all
rela9ve:
If
we
say
that
the
Swiss
are
punctual
by
habit,
we
don’t
mean
they
are
never
late:
that
would
be
an
unrealis-c
absolute.
We
can
say,
however,
that
they
are
punctual
by
comparison
with,
say,
the
Chinese,
whose
clock
has
flexible
(very!)
hands.

How
to
Take
the
CCQ
Assessment
(con9nued)
2.
Start
with
your
own
culture:
For
each
polarity,
score
your
own
culture
by
circling
one
number
on
the
scale.
Try
this
exercise
with
a
na-ve
culture
colleague.
Ask
the
ques-ons:
‘How
does
the
rest
of
the
world
see
us?’
or
‘How
likely
is
one
to
encounter
this
aNtude
in
our
home
culture:
how
‘typical’
is
it?’.

Focus
on
your
target
culture:
Now
score
the
foreign
culture
you
are
working
with,
in
a
different
colour!
If
there
are
gaps
in
your
knowledge,
fill
them
(do
research
online
and
person
to
person!).
Look
for
major
devia-ons
-‐
two
points
or
more
-‐
between
your
own
culture
and
the
target.
