The GlobeSmart Profile

The GlobeSmart ProfileSM is an effective, statistically validated online cultural inventory tool to discover and compare your own preferred work style across five dimensions of culture, and how you compare with other cultures, countries, colleagues, and teams. Available in 13 languages, the GlobeSmart Profile cultural intelligence software provides specific, dynamically generated advice on how to bridge differences and leverage similarities.

Minimize misunderstandings. Maximize success.

When differing work-styles collide, frustration can result. The GlobeSmart Profile identifies these differences and provides concrete strategies proven to address potential conflicts and pave the way for increased business success.

Understanding the Value of the GlobeSmart Profile as a Cultural Intelligence Training Tool

The true value of the GlobeSmart Profile is in its simplicity. It provides insight about cultural differences and their implications for business interactions. It is not an assessment or a diagnostic tool; there is no right or wrong profile. Instead, it is a statistically valid and reliable tool for helping you increase your awareness of potential gaps between your preferred way of operating and those of your colleagues, and for developing strategies for effectively bridging those differences.

With the GlobeSmart Profile, you will have access to:

  • A 40 item survey to discover your personal work style
  • Detailed information and video scenarios on GlobeSmart’s five dimensions of culture
  • Comparisons with the average profiles of 95+ countries
  • Invitations for your colleagues and teams to compare Profiles
