Dr. Michael Vande Berg, former VP Academic Affairs, CIEE (Council on Int'l Educational Exchange)
”Cultural Detective is contributing very significantly to CIEE’s efforts to help students abroad understand core cultural concepts, and develop key intercultural perspectives and skills—and is doing all of this in cost-effective ways.”
Instructional Designer, Major Payroll Services Organization
“Clearly, Cultural Detective was a natural fit for us—a fact that was driven home when I attended the FOLE sessions and saw a great example of how the training could be delivered online (something I very much appreciated, since most all of our training will be virtual by next year!). The FOLE sessions put all the pieces of the puzzle together for me and gave me plenty of ideas for conducting the training in a fun and engaging way.”
People to People International (PTPI) Global Youth Forum Leader
“During Cultural Detective students worked as team members to understand more about who they are: the value of exploring other people's values and discovering ways of making valuable connections with others.”
Carolyn Rehn, Sr. Organizational Development and Learning Specialist, AFS-USA Intercultural Programs
“Cultural Detective is a wonderful resource that we use to help us bring to light and deal with the differences and adjustment issues that happen in a cross-cultural exchange.”
Cultural Detective Facilitator Certification Attendee
“More than just talking about cultural diversity and cultural values and theories about how to bridge differences, Cultural Detective provides practical tools and experiential training that facilitate genuine learning. CD translates theory into applicable knowledge.”
Senior Instructional Designer, Major Payroll Services Organization
“Finally, survey results have come in. We have achieved, for the first time in my 5 years of working on the Learning and Development team, a 100% satisfaction rating from our learners.
I have received kudos from my managers and the Vice President of Services for having chosen and successfully delivered the Cultural Detective training. But the kudos should really go to you and your company, Kris. Cultural Detective is a rock solid methodology.
Thanks again for all your help making this training possible. When we take our next step into the global market, we know who we will turn to for training solutions.”
Senior Instructional Designer, Major Payroll Services Organization
“To ensure that the lessons learned in the classroom stick and continue to grow, our coaching team (who participated in both beta sessions and live training) are now making connections back to the Cultural Detective method, concepts, and terminology as they guide learners through the initial relationship-building process with our customers. And the anecdotal evidence of the overwhelming effectiveness of this coaching is pouring in already.”
Maartje Goodeve, Nascence Coaching, BC, Canada
“The emphasis on values and ‘lenses’ or interpretations is smack-on and invaluable insight for every personal and business relationship. The website and packages are easy to navigate, information is easy to find, and the visuals are supportive and integral to the product.”

“The Cultural Detective Online is a sound investment for my work as an intercultural and relocation coach. I will also suggest to my clients to get a subscription for themselves.”
