Company Culture:

Geopolitical Futures has always been a remote company (even prior to the pandemic). We do not request staff members to relocate, but we do expect them to engage during business hours according to U.S. Central time regardless of what country they are in. The remote structure requires all members of the company to be proactive and clear with their communications. 

Geopolitical Futures values the life of the mind and encourages intellectual debate. We are rigorously non-ideological. Our staff may have their personal beliefs, but they must check them at the door.
