Linda Dulye - President/Founder, Dulye & Co. and The Dulye Leadership Experience
“As a subject matter expert invited to lead a Dulye Leadership Experience Ownership Workshop, Kelly connected instantly with our participants with her practical and portable content for expanding these rising leaders’ professional development and career success. Using interactive exercises, interesting stories, and engaging presentation style, Kelly raised participants’ ability to recognize and leverage differences within their workplaces and overcome communication challenges to improve a team’s interactions and productivity.”
Angela Vannoy - CEO, Sojourn International
CQ training made these problems open for conversation and heightened our desire to be better in these areas. We developed a better understanding of our own differences and those of our customers, without allowing past habits of misjudging, and this has increased the strength of our team attitude. It has helped us see customers with higher respect and value, and avoid the typical jaded attitude so common in service industry. As a result of the CQ training we changed our sales strategy for a customer group that until now had been unprofitable. But with our new Cultural Intelligence strategies, we secured one of our best sales of the season—they payed our full asking price, had a great experience with our services, and wrote us a glowing review. If we had functioned on our past approach, we would have thought that all those things were unlikely, based on incorrect cultural perceptions. Since then, our team has implemented CQ strategies that led to profitable entry into two new international markets. Highly recommend it!”
Bob Wright - Co-ordinator, APEX
“Culture Savvy added a great value to us at our recent conference. Their pre- and post-training helped many of our members to understand better how they are (or are not) connecting culturally where they work. Being busy expats we found this to be helpful with many new cultural tips as well as timely reminders on things we need to keep in mind as guests in other countries. We are thankful for for the helpful insights we gained from our time together.”
Emir Aksoy – Employer Branding Team Leader, SunExpress Airlines
“As a co-lead of our company's volunteer Diversity and Inclusion Committee, I participated Culture Savvy's CQ Your Bias Workshop along with our whole Committee. In this workshop we had the opportunity to explore our conscious and unconscious biases. But we didn't just uncover them, we also engaged in educational activities through different stories and examples that helped us learn how to manage biases. By the end of the day we both got to know each other better as a team and through this shared learning experience we left the meeting room with ideas for how to transfer what we learned to our company and turn it into beneficial work outcomes. For us the most important outcome is creating an environment where our almost 4,000 employees from 40 nationalities are able to communicate easily, without hiding their identity, and contribute value by being who they are. We thank Pınar and her team for lighting our way toward this goal through this training and workshop.”
