In addition to being a Regent parent, the following is a little more about Eric:
An author, motivational speaker, and consultant, Eric Maddox teaches audiences worldwide the art of Empathy Based Listening. He is the author of the book Mission: Black List No.1 (Harper Collins, 2008) which details his lead in the search and capture of Saddam Hussein.
After graduating from the University of Oklahoma in 1994, Eric enlisted in the U.S. Army where he was a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division, a jumpmaster, and graduate of Ranger School. He re-enlisted in 1997 as a Chinese Mandarin linguist and interrogator. In 2003, he was sent to Tikrit, Iraq where he joined a Delta Force team who was searching for high value targets on the infamous Deck of Cards. After five months and over 300 interrogations, Eric was able to track down and eventually give the team the exact location of the spider hole in which Saddam hid. For this, he was awarded the Legion of Merit, the National Intelligence Medal of Achievement, the Defense Intelligence Agency Director’s Award, and the Bronze Star.
Following the capture of Saddam, Eric was hired as the first-ever civilian interrogator by the Defense Intelligence Agency where he went on to conduct over 2,700 interrogations of prisoners from 25 different countries.
Having served in the U.S. Army and Defense Intelligence Agency for 20 years, Eric now devotes his work full time to teaching what he learned during that time to audiences worldwide—the art of Empathy Based Listening.
Eric teaches business leaders how to most effectively use Empathy Based Listening to build influence in relationships and to use it as the foundation of the culture of companies. His mission is to create the most effective communication training program in the world.
He delivers an intimate story of tracking the most wanted man in the world in a war zone while creating an interrogation technique on the fly. This would, in turn, become a powerful communication process of building trust and maximizing influence in the civilian world. Eric captivates audiences with intensity and impacts real and positive changes in lives.
Eric’s consulting and training workshops enable companies to gather business intelligence necessary to adapt to an ever-changing marketplace. He inspires organizations to take action for growth and unprecedented success.
