About

I coach entrepreneurs and startups to avoid any roadblocks and build businesses that succeed.

I have been a Round 2 judge for the ABH 2025/24/23/22 (Jack Ma Foundation). This has helped me have a deeper understanding of what investors are looking for in startups across the globe. A lot of valuable learnings that I can pass on.

Mentoring for the past 6 years my mentees have had +ve experiences;

"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

"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 WORKGROUND

"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. …. Shivam Verma, Founder LEDGERWISE

Working with Eric is an inspiring and empowering experience. From day one, he created a space where I felt heard and supported, but also constructively challenged. Our sessions are a mix of strategic thinking, honest reflection, and actionable planning. Eric does not just give me answers—he asks the right questions that led me to find them myself. He is exactly the mentor I need to overcome my doubts and increase my confidence while pursuing my startup dream!

I've had a fantastic experience working with Eric through MentorCruise. From our first session, he created a supportive and focused environment that really helped me cut through the noise and get clarity on where to direct my energy. Eric was instrumental in helping me narrow down my focus—something I’d been struggling with for a while. He asked the right questions, challenged my thinking in constructive ways, and provided thoughtful feedback on potential ideas I was considering. I walked away from each session with more confidence, direction, and a clear next step. Highly recommend Eric if you're looking for a coach who listens deeply, brings structure to the chaos, and genuinely wants to see you grow.

it was nice to have the opportunity for a session with Eric. While the session was beneficial, I am seeking a mentor whose experience aligns more closely with my own. I believe that such alignment is crucial for effective mentorship, as it fosters mutual understanding and facilitates targeted guidance.

Eric's response

Hi Anica, I’m glad to hear the session was beneficial. However, I wish you had communicated earlier—either during our email exchanges or the session itself—that your expectations were different from what we had planned during the call. Given your three years of experience in business, your direct feedback would have been valuable. My approach has always been focused on actionable, realistic strategies designed for long-term success. I’m upfront about this, especially if immediate results may not align with a mentee’s hopes. As reflected in my reviews and my role as a judge with the Jack Ma Foundation for the past three years, I’ve consistently delivered on this promise. Wishing you all the best with your future mentor. If any of the plans we discussed could still be helpful, feel free to reconnect—I’m always eager to support those who aim to build sustainable, successful businesses. Cheers!
