The Foundation for Philosophical Orientation is a small, non-profit organization based in Nashville, Tennessee. It promotes a philosophy of orientation developed by Werner Stegmaier and pursues both theoretical inquiry and practical application within academia and beyond. The organization provides a space and platform for investigating how orientation is shaped and whether philosophical orientations are necessary, possible, and beneficial in everyday life. Its work targets both scholars and individuals who regularly confront surprising professional circumstances, including entrepreneurs, politicians, diplomats, journalists, lawyers, educators, ministers, artists, athletes, and marketers. It emphasizes developing orientation-related skills and competences that traditional philosophy has not typically addressed. The Foundation states its purpose is not profit-driven and it maintains neutrality with respect to political or religious aims.
