Bio
Hardeep Arora
I have known Eric for over a year as a boss, mentor and friend. I feel blessed to have known him and to have an opportunity to work and learn with him. He is a gem of a person, mature, humble, thoughtful leader and a wise mentor. He has an exceptional balance of EQ & IQ and comes across as very clam, composed and focused no matter how tough the situation is around. He treats people with respect, and seeks to understand others before expecting to be understood. He has also mastered the fine balance of managing his customers interest with that of the companies goals. Personally I learnt a lot from his mentorship and would always seek his suggestions in the future as well. I wish him all the very best for his future endeavours and highly recommend him.
