Building Cultural Intelligence

Quinton Pretorius

Quinton Pretorius’ expertise stretches across various areas including cultural intelligence, transformation, and leadership. He believes all people, races, and cultures – in spite of their apparent differences – are driven and inspired by common needs and values and that they will generally respond in similar ways, irrespective of the environment anp context they may find themselves in.

As a youth leader in the 90s, Quinton travelled to schools, reformatories, and juvenile centres, discovering the depths of division and imbalance between different segments of society. He soon came to the realisation that when you love someone, something within them changes.

These experiences provided the springboard for his interest into adaptive leadership and reinforced his compulsion to bring about change in his community back home.
