Preparation

Intercultural Effectiveness Scale (IES)

Before starting the assessment, take the Intercultural Effectiveness Scale (IES), which is a Web-based assessment that will provide you with information on a set of values and competencies to help you understand your preferences and learn to be a more effective global leader and manager. Before taking the IES, think about whether you consider yourself low, moderate, or high in areas focused on continuous learning (for example, self-awareness and exploration); interpersonal engagement (including global mindset and relationship interest); and hardiness (characteristics such as positive regard and emotional resilience).

  1. Review the results of the IES, which will be sent to you after you complete the inventory. 
  2. Read How to Interpret and Get the Most Value from Your IES Report [PDF].
