Due to the rise of technology and the information age most organisations compete based primarily on their people. The ability to recruit, engage and retain quality employees is the most challenging and expensive priority. 89% of Fortune 500 companies use behavioural assessments (DISC, MBTI) and the top 6 distributors sell 9 million assessments a year. Over 100k behavioural and intercultural trainers, coaches, consultants sell pre-globalisation material for decades.
iDISC bridges the gap between behavioural and intercultural models as it distils and seamlessly integrates the most researched models into one, practical framework.
iDISC (Intercultural DISC) is an ICF (International Coach Federation) accredited intercultural behavioural model that creates synergy between people who have different personality types and cultural background. It introduces the topic of cultural intelligence using the language of DISC, the world’s most popular behavioural model.

4. “People around the world are socialized into a certain preferred way of behaving and The Intercultural DISC model explains why. It is a practical framework based on the most
researched cross-cultural models to explain how national, cultural values and beliefs shape our behavior.
This is the ideal tool in today’s fast-paced, globalized world where the new generation of business people and leaders need to be culturally intelligent and adaptable without
being experts in 100s of different cultures. The more you understand people, the better rapport you will have with them which ultimately guarantees better interpersonal
results.”
Dr. Tony Alessandra, author of The Platinum Rule® and The NEW Art of Managing People, Hall of Fame keynote speaker, Top 50 marketing expert in the world
“I am very impressed with how you have pulled together the two dimensions of culture and personality. I applaud you! This is fascinating and impressive work. I definitely
believe you are on the cutting edge with your work, and that this is key to 21st century collaboration. Because globalization and migration have created so many people who
do not conform to standard cultural profiles, we need a more sophisticated approach, and you’ve got it!”
Sharon Kristjanson, SVK Intercultural LLC
“Diversity is the greatest asset or liability. Ignoring their cultural and personal differences in a multicultural world destroys performance, leveraging them makes organisations
profitable and sustainable. Solutions created before globalisation are not designed to address the people challenges of the 21st century, that is what Intercultural DISC was
created for. It is the ideal solution to create an inclusive environment supported by measurable and repeatable results.
Robert Cubbage, Ernst & Young Partner
“ICQ Consulting delivered a great interactive presentation to BBC managers about cultural intelligence for leadership. BBC is a global and multicultural broadcaster so in order
to be an effective organisation we need to have good cultural intelligence (ICQ). ICQ Consulting gave us the know-how and tools to be able to achieve this.”
Toby Mildon, Inclusion and Diversity Lead for BBC Design & Engineering, Finance & Operations and Radio
