Description:

In this two-part session, participants will learn about developing their intercultural insights by exploring the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI). The IDI generates an individual profile of “worldview orientation to difference,” and is based on the research of Dr. Milton Bennett and Dr. Mitchell Hammer. Participants will need to complete the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) before the session. Participants will have an opportunity to sign-up and attend a follow-up 1 hour meeting with a trained IDI facilitator to receive feedback on their individual profile and discuss their individual development plan for intercultural growth. 

Participants who attend this session will learn:

• how to describe the intercultural growth continuum and the stages of intercultural development
• where the IDI indicates they are on the intercultural growth continuum
• how to develop a personal plan for their intercultural growth to be able to work more effectively across cultures
