One of Coach E’s main teachings is that any successful person, company, or society must develop and articulate a strong foundation and vision for what creative force they want to bring into the physical realm. When working with clients, Eric and his colleagues help them to find and express their passions and then to collaborate with others to make those passions a reality.
