CQ: THE LEGACY LEADER’S SUPERPOWER: Driving Cultural Intelligence from the Boardroom to the Mailroom
()
About this ebook
From the Foreword:
“In this gem of a book, Tony López introduces us to cultural intelligence (CQ) and helps us understand how we go about developing leadership and organizational CQ. Importantly, Tony also explores the roles of the board and executive leadership teams in enabling and measuring CQ. Consider this book a guide, a road map, if you will, but don’t think of it as a recipe. Our personal CQ journeys are as individual as our fingerprints. The good news is this: CQ can be developed, improved, and used effectively; it can be powerful. I challenge all of us to embark on this journey and become high CQ leaders. Our teams, communities, and our families deserve nothing less.”
Yvonne Garcia Global Head of Internal Communications, Chief of Staff to Chairman and CEO State Street Corporation“Tony Lopez unlocks the vault on creating positive, enduring, and real change in how leaders and boards of directors must think about diversity, and how they can become culturally intelligent to fully leverage DE&I strategically and competitively up and down their organizations to drive impressive business results.”
Esther Aguilera President and CEO Latino Corporate Directors Association (LCDA)
“I have known Tony for many years and when Tony speaks, people need to listen. This book is insightful, and it is right on point, especially in today’s world. Understanding cultural intelligence (CQ) is paramount to any business leader of an organization, at all levels, including the board of directors. An organization that does not embrace Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) will not survive. DE&I and CQ is no longer a “nice to have” but an imperative.”
Jose R. Rodriguez, partner (retired), KPMG LLP
Independent director, Popular, Inc., Primoris Services Corp., and CareMax, Inc.
“I have known Tony for long enough to know that when he writes, I read. This book is a resource that will help us unlock the potential within each of us. Read it, apply it, and change the world around you. It will be time well spent!”
Chester Elton Best-selling author of Leading with Gratitude
