Episode 42: Anoushka Gungadin: Curious about Cultural Intelligence? Just ask Anoushka

Future Directors Podcast

This episode of the Future Directors podcast features guest Anoushka Gungadin. We’ve been wanting to get Anoushka on the show for a while now because we knew it’d be an amazing discussion, and Anoushka certainly delivered on that!

Anoushka is an experienced leader and non-executive director, international speaker and best-selling author on Amazon. She’s the CEO of Australian India Chamber and the founder of Global CQ – an organisation that “champions cultural intelligence and inclusive diversity as a toll to build the modern world”.

Paul and Anoushka hold a conversation that takes several surprising turns, focusing around the topic of cultural intelligence (CQ). As a global citizen, Anoushka is someone who knows a lot about CQ, and she explains it beautifully in this episode.

Paul and Anoushka also discuss:

• Is CQ simply about accepting people from different races, or is it more than that?
• How can CQ help us to navigate complex situations and challenges that arise in the boardroom?
• How can we motivate those who don’t share similarly positive values about CQ?
• As a society, could we ever move into a space where inclusion occurs naturally?
• How can diversity act as a pathway for others to come through?
• How to use diversity to build a better pipeline of potential directors
• Can we stop future generations from becoming cynical, and making the same mistakes we have?
• What can we do to accelerate acceptance of diversity?
