Leadership
About Me — Eric Peterson
Program Manager, Creator, Coach & Servant Leader. I write about leadership, team building, and community formation. Founder of ShepherdingHeart LLC.
Who am I?
Hi! I’m Eric. I am passionate about growing the next generation of leaders and creating safe places for their teams to perform great work.
I work as a program manager in technology leading agile teams. I also teach servant leadership principles through leading by example, speaking, writing, and workshops.
We need original thinkers, provocateurs, and people who care. ~ Seth Godin
What motivates me?
For many years, I thought the only people qualified to lead were those with titles. I was wrong.
Back then, I expected those in charge understood leading others is a privilege and responsibility.
As the years rolled by, I watched first-hand people I cared for getting crushed by leaders who cared more about their careers than about the people they were supposed to be serving.
