penetrating insight
I'm not sure you want to be translating this quite so literally. When I have something like this to translate, I hit the thesaurus:
insight, acute, penetrating, wise, shrewd, clarity, perceptive, critical, lucid, comprehensive
Then you just throw some words together to see what sounds good. Trying to hit the exact meaning of the Chinese phrase is just going to leave you with something clunky.
e.g. For the whole 16 characters, you could have:
Critical insight, global vision
or if that's too short:
Insights from around the world - unique perspectives and clarity
insight, acute, penetrating, wise, shrewd, clarity, perceptive, critical, lucid, comprehensive
