ABOUT ERIC
Ambition is not wanting more. It is refusing to inherit a default future.
I’m a professor, author, and researcher who helps ambitious people design what comes next for themselves, their careers, their teams, and their companies.
That work has taken me from Georgetown classrooms and two Inc. 5000 companies to award-winning books—including Super Mentors.
THE PLATFORM
Modern Author helps experts unlock the ambition inside their expertise. Speaking and Founder Factories help organizations unlock ambition across their people. Super Mentors and the podcast explore the projects and relationships that turn stuck ambition into movement.
