With more than two decades of international experience in education, leadership development, and intercultural training, Ruhann Fourie founded Cross Cultûra to help leaders, professionals, and organizations thrive across cultures. Based in Kamloops and operating primarily online, Cross Cultûra provides personalized cultural assessments, executive coaching, leadership development, and cross-cultural training that strengthen communication, collaboration, and leadership effectiveness in increasingly diverse workplaces. Ruhann's global perspective and customized approach have positioned the business to support clients around the world. With support from Venture Kamloops and participation in the VK Accelerate Program, Cross Cultûra refined its business model and growth strategy to expand its impact and help more organizations build culturally intelligent leadership.
“The VK Accelerate Program has been life-changing,” says Ruhann. “The structure, guidance, documentation, and personalized feedback helped me build a stronger business foundation. It challenged my thinking as an entrepreneur and connected me with experienced advisors who opened new opportunities and perspectives for growth.”
