How GPSx Adventures work:

Connect:  Through our proven process, trust is built, experiences are shared, and mutual understanding by different peoples is developed.

Empower:  Following Kolb’s 4-stage experiential learning cycle, teams are stretched outside of their comfort zone with new experiences and global competencies are developed through intentional, team-oriented activities.
