HR and Training Awards 2017
CORPORATE VISION / 2017 HR & Training Awards 17 , ICQ Consulting is a leadership development agency helping organisations create high- performing teams and individuals by leveraging personal and cultural differences. Managing Partner Csaba Toth tells us more. Best Cross-Cultural Training Provider 2017 Established in 2016, ICQ Consulting is dedicated to leveraging personal and cultural differences. The firm’s unique portfolio of data-driven solutions has already benefited some of the leading companies in the USA and Europe ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500 organisations. Csaba explains how the firm works to support these varied clients and ensure that they receive the solutions they need to succeed. “At ICQ Consulting, our mission is to make the science of uncommon sense (cultural intelligence) fun, practical and logical to make people productive, compatible and happy. The ICF and CPD Standards accredited intercultural behavioural model called Intercultural DISC™ helps people understand and connect with others who have different cultural background such as their generation, gender, profession, nationality and personality type.” Additionally, globalisation has created new challenges and 99% of companies try to address them by using tools created in the last century. ICQ Consulting has developed a complete, post-globalisation solution to turn diversity into profitable inclusion instead of painful liability. ICQ is about breaking down barriers within and between people by giving them the blueprint of while people think and behave differently. As such, Csaba is eager to highlight ICQ Consulting’s space in the technology driven HR market. “Due to the rise of technology and the information age most organisations compete based primarily on their people. The ability to recruit, engage and retain quality employees is the most challenging and expensive priority. Nobody would try to fix a brand new BMW using tools designed for repairing horse carriages, yet, most of them would try to solve the challenges of 21st century using solutions created in an era without internet, cheap flights and globalisation. If they worked, 83% of joint ventures would not fail today, 89% of new hires would not leave within 18 months and more than 13% employees would be actively engaged.” Looking to the future, Csaba is confident about the continued success of ICQ Consulting in this ever evolving market, as he is proud to conclude. “Overall, our goal is to have licensees in 50 countries by 2020. To achieve this, we are looking for strategic partnerships to reach more people to make them realise we are all similar or complementary instead of pointing out the differences to widen the gap. Currently, 89% of Fortune 500 companies use behavioural and intercultural models, and here at ICQ Consulting we have the only post-globalisation upgrade for all of them.” Company: ICQ Consulting Ltd Contact: Csaba Toth Address: Brighton, Brighton, East Sussex, UK Email:
