  • “Eric's approach to problem-solving and conflict resolution in the workplace (and in life, for that matter) is direct and practical. I draw upon his book, How to Work with Jerks, and our one on one coaching sessions for guidance quite often; because I work with "jerks," and because it is filled with wonderful, practical advice for being a mindful communicator (and for not being a "jerk" yourself!) If you have an opportunity to work with Eric, I highly recommend you jump on it!"

  • "One of the best decisions I made has been working with Eric. He is currently helping me navigate a toxic workplace environment, secure a new job, and giving me critical skills to manage conflict. This will not only help me deal with my day to day situation but prepare me for my new role. I have so much more confidence knowing that after working with Eric, I will have the ability to work with anyone….especially jerks!"
