Jason Chaffetz Joins American Global Strategies as Senior Advisor
American Global Strategies LLC, a premier strategic advisory firm, recently made headlines with the announcement of Jason Chaffetz’s appointment as a Senior Advisor, effective November 11, 2025. This strategic addition is anticipated to bolster AGS's capabilities across critical sectors including defense, energy, and technology.
A Proven Leader in Public Service
Chaffetz, who served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 2008 until 2017, has a distinguished background in both public service and the private sector. Elected from Utah's Third District, he quickly moved up the ranks and was appointed chair of the House Oversight Government Reform Committee after only three terms. In this role, he conducted significant investigations into pivotal federal agencies such as the Secret Service and the Department of Education, as well as the notorious Benghazi incident.
Significantly, Chaffetz founded the committee's first I.T. subcommittee, addressing pressing issues related to procurement, privacy, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies. His time in Congress demonstrated not only his leadership capabilities but also his dedication to integrity and accountability within the government.
A Robust Academic and Professional Background
Beyond his legislative achievements, Chaffetz has held prominent roles in academic and policy arenas. His tenure as a Resident Fellow at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics in 2017 and as a Distinguished Fellow at the Government Accountability Institute starting in 2021 underscores his influential presence in political discourse. Currently, he holds a position as a Visiting Fellow at The Heritage Foundation, where he plays a central role in the Oversight Project.
Chaffetz’s expertise is also grounded in extensive experience within the private sector. Prior to his years in political office, he worked as Chief of Staff to Utah Governor Jon Huntsman and served on the Board of Trustees for Utah Valley State College. Additionally, he spent over a decade at Nu Skin Enterprises, where he held leadership positions, further diversifying his professional portfolio with the establishment of his own consulting firm.
Commitment to Public Service and Strategic Advisory
American Global Strategies has emerged as a significant player in the advisory sector, founded by former National Security Advisor Robert C. O'Brien and former National Security Council Chief of Staff Alexander B. Gray. With a staff composed of talented professionals with extensive governmental experience, AGS prides itself on its talent, insight, and integrity, equipping it to tackle complex challenges within national security, public policy, and global strategy.
Ambassador (ret.) Robert C. O’Brien commented, "Jason is a proven leader and public servant whose insights and integrity are widely respected. We are proud to welcome him to AGS as we continue to expand our capabilities to serve clients across defense, energy, and technology sectors."
Chaffetz expressed enthusiasm for his new role, stating, "American Global Strategies has demonstrated they are the best in their class. AGS has the talent, insight, and integrity to do what very few are capable of doing. I am honored to join the team and work with such a talented group."
As AGS continues to grow and adapt to the rapidly evolving landscape of global challenges, the addition of Jason Chaffetz signifies a strategic enhancement of the firm’s advisory prowess. His extensive background in governance, policy, and the private sector positions him uniquely to contribute valuable insights and guidance to AGS’s mission of effective advisory services on global strategies.
