For Individuals

An Entry Point for Everybody

Are you a leader who wants to make sure you’re creating a sense of belonging in your team? Are you someone who wants to develop personally and professionally, to continue to learn and grow so you can bring out the best in those you work with? This program will introduce you to a transformative framework for doing exactly that: the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI).

In this program, you will:

  • Complete online asynchronous modules, learning about game changing concepts to boost your capacity to lead effectively across differences (about 3 hours)
  • Participate in a live Zoom discussion and experiential activity (about 1.5 hours)
  • Take the IDI online (about 20 minutes)
  • Meet 1-on-1 with a member of Waypoint’s team to debrief your IDI results and report, with coaching focused on your strengths and opportunities, with recommended next steps using your personalized Intercultural Development Plan (about 1 hour)

Intercultural Leadership Cohort and Certificate Program

Do you want to increase belonging in your organization or in your community and decrease polarization? Are you part of a committee working to enact change in your workplace, but have hit a wall or feel alone?

Intercultural Action Cohorts

How do we put theory into effective practice? How can we be reflective as we do this work, and compassionate–and accountable–with ourselves and each other? How do we act in a way that aligns our intention and our impact and centers the experience of those who are most marginalized? This program is open to individuals who have completed the Intercultural Leadership Cohort and Certificate Program or those whose organizations have completed the Foundational Intercultural Development Series.

Individual Intercultural Coaching

Individual Intercultural Coaching is a highly customized service, as it is a unique collaboration between the intercultural coach and the individual to build their capacity to effectively navigate differences that make a difference. This service is grounded in best practices from intercultural development theory in service of personal and professional growth.

It is unique in that it meets the individual exactly where they are in their development, based on the results of the Intercultural Development Inventory, building on their individual strengths and supporting their growth in ways that are both compassionate and accountable. Depending upon the individual’s goals, coaching sessions are an opportunity to support putting theory into practice on an individual, organizational, and/or systemic level.

Our coaching clients include:

  • DEI professionals who want to add an intercultural development framework to their work
  • Leaders who work across many types of “differences that make a difference” and are committed to building their leadership capacity
  • Individuals, often recommended by HR or their supervisors, who need additional support in respectfully or effectively responding to difference or are resistant to DEI initiatives
