The Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) is the premier cross-cultural assessment of intercultural competence. Guided by our Qualified Administrator, individuals and organizations use IDI to build intercultural competence and achieve diversity and inclusion goals.
How Does The IDI Work?
QUESTIONNAIRE
Participants complete the Intercultural Development Inventory, a 50-item electronic questionnaire that can be completed in 15–20 minutes.
RESULTS
Our Qualified Administrator reviews the results and generates custom reports based on individual, team, or organizational needs.
a) For individuals, a customized Intercultural Development Plan® (IDP®) is prepared. This IDP provides a detailed blueprint for you to further develop your intercultural competence.
b) For teams and organizations, a Group IDI Profile is prepared. Interviews or focus groups are also conducted to identify cross-cultural goals and challenges. These results are used alongside your IDI profile to determine specific strategies to improve intercultural competencies in your organization.
COACHING
Our Qualified Administrator walks you through your results and actionable steps, answering questions, facilitating conversation, and providing recommendations.
FOLLOW-UP
The TalentLink team and Qualified Administrator remain available to provide any further coaching, additional assessments, or specific training you may need.
Why Choose The IDI?
Focus on Development – Rather than providing a stale print out, the IDI process facilitates cooperative conversations and actions directed toward growth and development. This allows participants to concentrate on moving from how they currently engage cultural differences to how they can more effectively engage diversity.
Practical, In-depth Information – The Individual and Group Profile Reports offer in-depth insights, integrating quantitative and qualitative data to provide a complete picture of your intercultural competence.
Actionable Results – Your Profile Report, along with coaching from our Qualified Administrator, leaves you with concrete, achievable recommendations you can begin implementing right away.
