What We Do
TGP is committed to inspiring "Trans-cultural Connection™"
Our Roles: We're... (click each)
~ Ambassadors: We encourage "connections" between people of all cultures, nationalities, religions, institutions, and home ports. We stress that through interaction with "Others," we develop the awareness, knowledge, and compassion to have more meaningful, enriching, and powerful lives.
~ Facilitators: We inform people of incredible resources and tools readily available in the world that they can use for fun, profit, service, and general well-being. We'll help you construct your own roadmap (and sea charts!) for successfully navigating the choppy waters of globalization and multiculturalism.
~ Storytellers: We believe that a story or joke is better than a sermon, and a game or contest more valuable than a lecture. We borrow shamelessly from all cultures and creeds, especially our own "cross-cultural collisions." Everyone experiences in his or her own way and is perfectly able to make their own decisions. We just jazz things up a little...
~ Scribes: We intrigue and entertain. Our publications and programs compel people to "Tread lightly…Travel widely…Think deeply…Listen carefully …Speak truthfully…Question endlessly…Laugh heartily… & Love fully…"
~ Catalysts: We inspire "Everyman" (and "Everywoman"!) to realize that we're all just like Archimedes: with a long enough lever, we can lift the world. TGP provides the fulcrum; you provide the lever. We salute your vocational, recreational, spiritual, and aesthetic callings: the "real you" can indeed lift worlds…

~ Position companies for successful global commerce: Our GAP'n'GO (Global Awareness Program, Global Optimization) facilitation process provides powerful content, context, and contacts for successfully entering the"global waters." Need to know how to accurately assess the ROI of potential international initiatives? Maximize your hiring and retention of costly expats? Successfully "team" with people from other cultures and countries who might see the world through different eyes? Get hooked up with the right information - and deal - brokers? We can help.

"If you are seeking to grow your business globally, you need a 'Guru' like Steve Banick of The Gulliver Project'
Dr. P.Misra, Indo-American Chamber of Commerce
~ Prepare students and (educators!) for "New World" vocations: (High school level) Edutainment-oriented "Distance Learning" Audio-Visual programs based upon New Gulliver approaches to Business/Marketing; Social Studies; Language and Literature. At the college level, our speaking circuit informs, entertains and inspires young adults to empower themselves through the changing vocational landscapes of the New World. Coming Soon...
~ Stimulate audiences to engage in the New World: Steve Banick's a professional speaker/storyteller who excels at using "Edutainment, Awareness, Inspiration and Connection" to motivate people for fuller engagement in the daunting-but-rewarding New World. His diverse and overlapping themes run the gamut from content-packed primers on preparing for global business to outrageous, humorous (and life threatening!) adventure escapades that always pack a "lesson-learned" or two about "exchanging' with our New World. All of Steve's topics ultimately aim to help people and organizations "feel better, have more and be more" - he just employs some rather unorthodox approaches...
"Steve absolutely captivates the listener and transports one to not only a different place but a different time where history, culture and 5000 years of human interaction converge." Tom Kurtz, The Jericho Group
~ Inform, entertain and provoke through the "written word": We're publishers (Gulliver Publishing) and author (Steve Banick). Steve's Accidental Enlightenment and The New Gullivers (series) will appeal to a wide crossover of people who read Personal Growth/Transformation, Travel Literature/Essays, Business and Geo-political/Current Affairs, History, Cultural Anthropology and any other kind of "cross-cultural collision" topics!
(Accidental Enlightenment)..."Makes Gulliver's Travels seem pale in comparison" Laurel Johnson, Midwest Book Review
“What The New Gullivers proposes is great change, and a great challenge to the Human race. It will become a reference guide for those who will venture forth to discover, connect and change.” Joe Carroccio, Managing Editor, Arizona GoodLife News
