Our audience loved it and so did our leadership. He spoke right to the needs of our people and helped our organization carve new pathways for our culture’s continued success.

Eric Saperston has spent the last 25 years cold-calling and taking the most successful people in the world out for a cup of coffee to discover the common traits, motivating factors, and guiding principles that enables everyday people to produce extraordinary results.

Driven by the adage, “To know the road ahead, ask those coming back.” Eric wanted to understand better what separated ordinary achievement from legendary success.

With that premise, Saperston hit the open road, living in his Volkswagen bus, selling grilled cheese sandwiches at rest stops while cold calling the most successful people in the world and taking them out for a cup of coffee. With humble beginnings, tenacity, resourcefulness, and a genuine desire to learn from successful elders drove Eric to interview thousands of business leaders, pioneers, visionaries, rockstars, and legends, and to become the leadership expert he is today.

Walt Disney Studios turned Eric’s life story into an award-winning feature film, The Journey.
