Colleagues describe him as "I can't believe it's been just over a decade knowing Eric. I knew him first as his direct report at dESCO, then after dESCO as mentor and friend. Under Eric's charming demeanor lies a quick wit, and knack for solving big business problems. As those of us in the space know, straddling the needs of a rapidly growing user base along with the demands of growing a capable technical and development team is a weight capable of crushing any leader not forged from 'sterner stuff'. Eric led by example in this regard, giving of himself to always develop his people and continue growing the dESCO business. As an executive myself, I've modeled my own leadership style from Eric's example, and have always appreciated his council in the times that we are able to find time to catch up. Eric's true impact extends far beyond the businesses that he has nurtured and grown to amazing heights, but also the people that he invests his time and mindshare with. Any company that is fortunate enough to bring Eric on will have stumbled on a true treasure.", "I have the privilege of knowing and working with Eric for 20 plus years. Eric has always gone above and beyond anyone's expectations when it came to taking care of any and all customers needs, any and all employees needs and concerns and would always be the first person to volunteer and offer to help tackle any and all challenges. Eric is an outstanding humanitarian. He always put the needs of others before his own. I always enjoyed working and being around Eric as his positive energy always made every situation better and easier. Eric is an outstanding, caring, compassionate and extremely intelligent and dedicate human being. Put simply Eric ROCKS!!!!!!", and "Sinek says “great leaders make others believe what they believe”. Great leaders inspire. They make people better. They create a safe environment in which promotes ownership and engagement. Great leaders are genuine and instill a sense of pride and purpose. It is for these reasons that, in 25 years, Eric is the top 3 most inspirational leaders with which I have ever had the privilege to work. Genuine, positive, but also honest, fair, and demanding, he earns fierce loyalty. Through mutual respect and empowerment, Eric helps his teams reach their fullest potential. While he maintains high expectations, he embodies the qualities he is so adept to imbue. Despite decades of customer and industry knowledge combined with deep technical know-how and exceptional problem solving skills, he is one of the most humble men I know. Calm under pressure, one could look up from the middle of a crisis to find him walking through the office with his guitar. Always ready with a smile. Always available to listen, help, or give you a kick in the ass. Again, he is honest. All across the company, you find people who would take a bullet for Eric… because they know he would do the same. Big brain with an even bigger heart, I am beyond proud to have worn the same uniform (twice)."
