History
CernySmith was formed in 1987 by Dr. Leonard J. Cerny II and Dr. David S. Smith. Both are Clinical and Consulting Psychologists with established clinical practices in Southern California (United States). In 1992, Dr Cerny and Dr. Smith began providing international consultation and coaching services to cross-cultural organizations, work teams, and families. With the help of their colleagues, they have conducted workshops and coached teams in over 30 different countries including North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Typically, they each travel more than 50,000 miles a year. Since 2001, they have pioneered the research and development of the CernySmith Adjustment Index (CSAI). The CSAI is the first well-researched, reliable, accurate tool for screening and evaluating cross-cultural adjustment. It is available online at www.cernysmith.com. Dr. Cerny and Dr. Smith also provide training and mentoring for international coaches and other helping professionals in the use of CSAI assessments for evaluating and enhancing Intercultural Intelligence (ICI).
