Abstract: The construct of
cultural intelligence has recently been introduced
to the management literature as an individual
difference that may predict effectiveness and a
variety of interpersonal behavior in the global
business environment. This construct has enormous
potential in helping to explain effectiveness in
cross-cultural interactions. However, progress has
been limited by the adequacy of existing measures.
In this presentation I first outline a
conceptualization of cultural intelligence
developed by a multinational research team, and
then describe the development and preliminary
validation of a web-based assessment of cultural
intelligence.
