He is an excellent mentor (I can attest to this!) - utilizing situations and strategic opportunities as "bright spots" for those seeking to grow. When I began as a Board/Council Program Manager at The Nature Conservancy, working with Eric on a Conservation Investments Working Group was one of my favorite first tasks. Not only did he encourage me to speak up and share my perspectives, he proactively created space for me to add value. I highly recommend Eric as a mentor, leader of innovative groups with complex stakeholders and objectives, and beyond. " and "I worked for Eric at The Nature Conservancy during the summer of 2014. As a manager, he was great at giving me both direction and autonomy. Every assignment I got from him had a clear impact, and I felt empowered to come up with solutions on my own. When I needed feedback or encountered a roadblock, I could always count on his insight and help to move forward. As a mentor, it was inspiring to see Eric’s commitment to The Nature Conservancy’s goals as well as his dedication to helping his team succeed. He is very present in the moment and that makes for enjoyable and productive working sessions. He is without a doubt someone I would enjoy working with in the future."
