GPS focuses on building bridges
The challenges facing the international system today — from geopolitical competition to economic transformation — require new forms of cooperation that connect public and private leaders across borders. This is the intersection where building bridges is essential.
Through convening, advising, and thought leadership, GPS helps organizations and leaders navigate complex international relationships by combining three core principles:
Relationships first
Trust and human networks are the foundation of successful diplomacy and business.
Culture Matters
Understanding the cultural context behind decisions unlocks opportunities that policy alone cannot.
Partnership over rivalry
The strongest alliances emerge from shared purpose and mutual respect.
At a moment of global uncertainty, GPS seeks to elevate the importance of international collaboration, particularly in strengthening ties between the United States, Japan, and the broader Indo-Pacific region.
