Intercultural Development Inventory®

The Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) assesses intercultural competence—the capability to shift cultural perspective and appropriately adapt behavior to cultural differences and commonalities. The Intercultural Development Inventory is a 50-item questionnaire available online that can be completed in 15–20 minutes. Results of the IDI must be debriefed by a Qualified Administrator.

The Kaleidoscope Institute (KI) has several Qualified Administrators of the IDI who incorporate the teaching and processes of KI in providing group and individual feedback of IDI results. Sessions with groups are typically two hours long. Sessions with individuals usually take one hour. The conversations include time for learning, reflection, and developing an action plan for growth.
