Intercultural Effectiveness Scale

 
The Intercultural Effectiveness Scale (IES) assessment evaluates competencies critical for effective interaction with people who are different from one another. These differences can originate from country culture or from ethnic, generational, religious, and other sources.

The IES measures three major competencies:

  • Continuous Learning - How we learn about other people and the accuracy of that learning.
  • Interpersonal Engagement - How we develop and manage relationships with people who are different from us.
  • Hardiness - How we manage the challenges and stress involved in interacting with people different from ourselves.
The IES has 57 questions and takes most people 10-15 minutes to complete.

A number of translations are available for the IES. If you are interested in using the IES with languages other than English, contact the Kozai Group www.kozaigroup.com/contact/
