Colleagues describe him as "Eric Fretz has been serving as a consultant to the William Davidson Institute since 2018. I have worked with him on a variety of projects, including the LIFE Project, which aimed to develop sustainable livelihoods in the food sector in Turkey. Eric designed training curriculum for the program, on topics including leadership, communication skills, mentorship, and pedagogy. Eric’s materials have been consistently excellent – designed with rigor and presented with great clarity. I had the opportunity to observe Eric leading a train-the-trainer in the program, and I was very impressed by his lively, interactive delivery as well as his depth and breadth of knowledge. Eric has also served as an instructor in our NGO Leadership Workshop, twice traveling to Poland to deliver workshops covering topics including resilience and strategic planning in crisis. He brought tremendous energy to the classroom. His insights and instruction resonated strongly with our participants and they appreciated his clear explanation of relevant tools and his interactive discussions on practical application." and "I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Fretz for the past 11 years, he brings with him a passion to serve and the humor to connect. Most recently, Dr. Fretz was a guest speaker on an Emergent Leadership course that I co-lead, his topic was coaching and mentoring. During the session, he not only gave the team some wonderful material to use, but actually coached each individual participant on a issue that they were facing in their daily workplace. It was amazing to watch, and he continues to be a highlight of the course for us."
