WHAT IS IT?

The Global Gender Intelligence® Assessment is a valuable online self-assessment tool to help men and women better understand gender, become more inclusive, and provide strategies for how to improve effectiveness in key aspects of work life and personal life.

HOW IT WORKS

Self-assessment is a critical starting point to addressing cognitive, emotional, and behavioural aspects of our gender-pervasive world. If we first understand our own nature and motivations we can begin to understand and value that of others.

Developed by Barbara Annis of the Gender Intelligence™ (BIN) and Alan Richter of QED Consulting, the Global Gender Intelligence Assessment (GGIA) is based on QED’s online Global Diversity Survey©. The advantage of the adaptation of the tool to measure gender awareness is its usefulness across all organizations and all cultures to help measure individuals (and baseline organizations) against the best global insights and practices around gender.

The GGIA will significantly raise the bar on improving gender awareness in the workplace, helping men and women:

COMMUNICATION

Understand and eliminate the gender “blind spots” that hinder communication

DIVERSITY

Become more inclusive of the diversity of ideas emanating from gender-blended teams.

VALUES

Bridge their differing values and priorities and find the complement in each other’s unique strengths.

Given the disparities between men and women globally, this tool will be a powerful addition to a suite of products offered by GIG as well as QED, designed to generate greater diversity, awareness, and skills worldwide.

There are two versions of the GGIA—both designed for global use. The standard version is for employees or staff members, and a leadership version is for those in leadership or management positions. Additionally, the tool is suitable for for-profit, non-profit, government, and academic environments.
