What Global Perspectives does

Global Perspectives (legal entity: Global Perspectives K.K., 株式会社 Global Perspectives) is a Japan-based boutique organizational change consultancy founded in 2015 and headquartered in Yokohama. The firm partners with enterprise clients in Japan, Asia, and Europe to transform mindsets and behaviors at the individual, team, and organizational levels, with service lines spanning leadership development, DEI culture change, change management, healthy workplace/resilience programs, and sustainability strategy. Its service architecture is anchored by a proprietary ACE methodology (Assess / Challenge or Maximize / Enable), and it operates a sustainability-focused sub-brand called Enteleco Consulting that delivers ESG programs, culture audits, and a Finland Study Tour in partnership with Aalto University Executive Education.

The company's core productized offerings include the Insights Discovery Program (a globally recognized psychometric profiling tool used by 10M+ people worldwide, delivered bilingually under an official Japan partnership), and the 8–9 month Sustainability & Innovation Intrapreneurship Program linked to the annual One Young World summit (190+ countries, 2,000+ delegates). New product activity in April 2026 includes Compass, an AI-powered organizational culture diagnostic with 15 assessments and adaptive questioning (in development), an AI Adoption Culture for Managers course, and the Next Gen Impact Lab cohort program. The firm also co-hosts the Driving DEI in Management event series with A.P. Moller-Maersk (since 2022) and maintains GTM partnerships with the British, Swiss, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish chambers of commerce in Japan.

Global Perspectives generates revenue through custom, project-based professional services engagements priced per scope, supplemented by unit-priced events (e.g., ¥4,500/person experiential workshops), subscription-style Insights Discovery profile offerings, and program fees such as the intrapreneurship program (minimum 6 participants per company group). The go-to-market is enterprise field sales driven by direct consulting engagement, chamber-of-commerce co-marketing, industry events, and referral networks, with bilingual (English/Japanese) delivery enabling access to multinational clients. The firm is privately held and founder-owned with no disclosed external funding; headcount sits in the 1–10 band, making it a high-touch boutique operation rather than a scaled consultancy.
