CQ Spotlight: April 2021

The CQ Spotlight initiative aims to showcase stories about the impactful work that CQ Certified

Facilitators do at home and abroad. The CQ Spotlight for this quarter is Viviane Vicente!

Viviane Vicente is a global professional with a legal background and over 20 years of experience in both government and corporate settings.

Viviane is CQ Certified and attended the CQ Certification, CQ Train-the-Trainer, and Unconscious Bias Train-the-Trainer programs in 2019. In late

2020, Viviane joined the Cultural Intelligence Center as a Master Facilitator.

As a Master Facilitator, Viviane plays a key role in Learning & Development initiatives, facilitates trainings and public workshops, and uses her CQ

expertise to elevate individuals and organizations. She is passionate about organizational behavior topics and has spoken on matters of Business

Etiquette and Cross-cultural Management at various events around the world. Read what Viviane has to say about CQ below!

“The Cultural Intelligence (CQ) model has enabled me to help internal and external clients navigate multicultural challenges domestically and

abroad. As someone who grew up in a multicultural, utterly diverse context and later lived and worked in various places, I was always interested

in different languages, customs, and communication styles.

But upon being certified in CQ, I started acquiring a deeper understanding of why we think and act the way we do; how to shed stereotypes and

see beyond apparent traits, and bridge gaps in leadership, performance, and professional relations stemming from cultural differences and

similarities. Be it working with people from different generational, geographical, or functional cultures, I can confidently use the CQ framework

and the robust research behind it to assist professionals and teams in reaching success.”
