I have had the opportunity to work with Eric for over 3 years. During this time, I have seen Eric grow and develop at an amazing pace. Eric previously handled large project negotiation. Based off of his exemplary performance in the negotiation department, Eric was offered a job within our hotel network. Negotiating large volume contracts with specific brands and chains is now his primary job duties. Eric oversees all hotel rates, contracts, production and issue relation for Major Brands and Chains. These are brands that Creative Lodging Solutions is partnered with and does millions of dollars with each year. Erics ability to maintain and grow these relationships have proved to be very lucrative for our company. What makes Eric stick out in the workplace is his selflessness and his ability to adjust on demand. There has been many instances where another department could use his skills and Eric voluntarily stepped in to not only meet, but exceed expectations. Eric is a genuine leader but when you have the chance to watch him operate in a team environment, you will immediately see his ability to collaborate and succeed while learning from and helping others. Eric is an optimist. He assumes positive intent in every interaction and has the ability to add value within each conversation. Eric would be an extremely valuable asset to any company. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have in regards to Erics work ethic, knowledge and commitment.
