Here is what my mentees have to say;

“What you get with Eric is proactive mentorship. One that often makes the first move to check up on you, giving you feedback when you least expected it. This is a testament to the quality of care that Eric gives to his mentees. I would recommend!” — Zhen Ming Ng, Founder of Workground.io

“Eric is one of the best Mentors I have worked with. He brings in knowledge, patience and follows give first philosophy – tries to bond with you first, understand your strengths and weaknesses before giving his opinion. His remarks are subtle and mostly pushes you to look deeper into yourself. He goes to extra length to help you succeed, be it call/resources, helping you prepare pitches or finding right contacts to help you grow business. Sessions with him helped me look into my mistakes and strengths I have been missing. Will highly recommend to business owners looking for funding or individuals thinking of starting a new business.” — Shivam Verma, Founder Ledgerwise.com

“Eric has challenged my thinking and encouraged and help me to grow personally and professionally!

If you are stuck or overwhelmed in your current situation and need someone to give you clarity and advice, talk to Eric!” Alexander Sachs – CTO – SCIPIO Global GmbH

Eric made a substantial change in the way I approached researching my markets, how to simplify my processes and made me rethink my values system on a personal and career front.

Articulates his thoughts extremely well
Takes a personal interest and asks you about your WHY
Provides realistic and constructive feedback
Very light-hearted and easy to talk to
Empathetic (huge bonus!)” — Rani Rajasekaran, Founder at RootCause HR, New Zealand
