I'm Sam Bleicher.  The Strategic Path LLC is the
legal entity for my academic and consulting
activities. 
(See About Us for full biographical
information.) 

Recent Academic Activities - 
Beginning in 2007,
I have taught International Trade and WTO
(through the University of San Diego Law School
Summer Program in Moscow), Common Law Legal
Reasoning
and American Civil Procedure (in Beijing
in the Temple University/Tsinghua University Law
School Joint LLM Program and the Chinese National
Judges College), and International Negotiations (at
Georgetown University Law School in Washington,
DC).  I have also given brief lectures on these
subjects at other law schools in China, and I have published some short articles on current China topics.  I am available to teach and lecture on these subjects anywhere in the world.


Consulting Activities -  The Strategic Path LLC provides strategic advice that calls for the ability to deal with complex problems that do not fall neatly into the domain of one or another established professional discipline.  Current activities for business clients involve advising on establishment of contractual arrangements with the Department of State and initiating negotiations to establish a US-Chinese business partnership.             

         My ability to address complex problems stems from my unusually wide range of expertise and experience.  My formal education (BA in Economics with Honors from Northwestern University, JD from Harvard law School with emphasis on international law) was followed by a decade as a law professor, 20 years in private law practice, and a decade as a senior government official dealing with environmental and foreign affairs issues.           

         My most recent governmental post was Chief Strategist for New Initiatives in the State Department’s Overseas Buildings Operations Bureau, which is responsible for the construction and operation of diplomatic facilities in 262 locations around the world.
