Fostering Connections, Embracing Diversity

"I recommend that any individual or organization wanting to do business with China or people of Chinese origin anywhere in the world, should learn from the programs offered by Christine Gao of Cultural IQ. Christine shows a genuine commitment to helping you learn the essential business ethics and approach required to form good business relationships. Christine’s training workshops appeal to all types of learning and definitely lead you to experience the “ahaa”.”

Terry Pringle, FCMA, CHRP, President of Champion Resources

" Thank you Christine for providing such a wonderful opportunity to learn about Toronto's vibrant Chinese community. I gained a tremendous amount of insight in your 'Assessing the Chinese Market' seminar. I feel like a new door has been opened to a world I previously felt uncertain how to approach. I sincerely look forward to building Quan Xi (relationship) now and for many years to come."

Lynn Woodman, Presentation, Voice and Audition Coach

Testimonials - What clients have said

“I wish to thank you for giving me a wonderful opportunity to participate in your workshop. Your style of presentation and instruction created a greater opportunity to exchange several ideas and experiences on many different levels due to the diversity of the group participating and the many years of combined professional experience. I commend you for your efforts and your success! We started as strangers yet, through your exercises, left as friends with a fresh perspective on our lives and careers. It was a surprisingly informative learning experience which gave us deeper insight into ourselves and others, than we would have ever thought possible. It was designed well and effectively with panache and sensitivity. We will all excel in our future endeavors with greater vigor and determination because of it. Thank You!”

“I want to thank you for facilitating the leadership of our Cultural Group that met at The Markham Board of Trade. The presentation and information shared was very good. I do appreciate your teaching style and look forward to being in future seminars with you. I am especially interested in 'communication styles' from a cross cultural perspective, between Chinese and English speaking people. “
