How well do you work
across difference?
Most professionals work with people from different cultural backgrounds every day. But very few have ever been given a precise picture of how their natural communication style, behavioural preferences and cultural intelligence actually show up. This free cross-cultural assessment is a public version of a tool used in team engagements. It takes 12–15 minutes and gives you a clear, research-grounded picture of your own defaults — how you communicate, build trust, give feedback and handle difference.
Take the free assessment →Four dimensions. A clear picture of your own communication style and preferences.
Communication style
How you naturally listen, speak, plan, decide and handle disagreement — your instinctive communication style mapped precisely.
Behavioural preferences
Your preferences around feedback, leadership, trust, persuasion and decision-making — where you align with colleagues or diverge.
Cultural intelligence
How motivated, knowledgeable, strategic and adaptive you are when working across cultural difference — your intercultural readiness to bridge the gap.
Psychological safety
Whether you feel able to speak up, be yourself, make mistakes and raise concerns without fear — the foundation of any high-performing team.
Three steps to your cultural profile
Answer 55 statements
Rate each statement honestly — based on your instinct, not your ideal. No right or wrong answers. Takes 12–15 minutes.
See your position on each dimension
Your results appear immediately across all four dimensions — showing where you naturally sit and what that means for how you communicate and collaborate.
Understand your defaults
Your profile shows where your natural style is likely to diverge from others in cross-cultural communication — giving you a basis for reflection and, if needed, a conversation with a specialist.
The free version is a starting point. The team version is where the real work happens.
This assessment is part of a broader diagnostic tool used in team engagements. The free public version gives individuals a picture of their own style. The full team version goes much further — every team member completes the assessment, results are mapped together, and the analysis surfaces what is actually getting in the way of the team working well.
None of the following is available in the free version.
