Intercultural Development Inventory

How can the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI®) help your business?

The Intercultural Development Inventory is a powerful tool to support learning and development programs for your organization’s leaders, teams and individual staff.

It is rooted in theory, and rigorously validated through practice. The IDI provides an accurate profile of professionals’ abilities to observe and operate within multi-cultural settings. The IDI begins with a questionnaire completed online in 15-20 minutes. A personalized face-to-face debrief with one of TRIEC’s certified IDI specialists will help participants understand the results of the questionnaire, and how they can use the results as a personal development tool.

For each individual who completes the assessment, the IDI creates a customized Intercultural Development Plan (IDP) that guides them through a series of activities and self-reflections that developmentally build intercultural competence.
