Known by many as “Mr. Energy” Eric has inspired, entertained and educated over 2,500 audiences over the past two decades. Every year Eric speaks to more than 150 corporations, organizations, chambers and associations on the topics he is most passionate about: empowerment, personal development, sales, leadership, presentation skills and customer service.

As the founder and president of Eric Taylor’s Empowerment Group, he walks his talk everyday. Eric’s passion and commitment toward helping people achieve personal and professional excellence was fueled by the severe panic attacks he experienced in his adolescent years. Through formal and self-education, Eric overcame this paralyzing disorder by reading over 700 books on personal development. He immersed himself in the study of human behavior, building self-esteem, self confidence and self–discipline.

Eric Taylor of New Jersey —  Just six weeks away from turning 40, Eric Taylor was not living the life he wanted, despite seemingly having everything. In the past few months, he had gotten married again and began a new life with hopes of having more children and enjoying life. Within a matter of weeks, health and personal crises took their toll on his career and his life, and Eric realized that it was now or never—he needed to change the direction of his life. He was out of shape, and more importantly, he knew that his family needed him to be around for years to come.
