Verified five-star reviews from clients who completed The Purpose Factor® Assessment and 1:1 coaching with Eric DeLeon.
Thank you, Eric DeLeon! It was insightful and healthy to go over my Purpose Report. It was a good place to understand how we are better and have an anchor that keeps us grounded. Eric asked the right questions and made me feel comfortable during our session. Very professional and well-spoken. I appreciate the time and care you put into each report.
Working with Eric DeLeon using The Purpose Factor was an enlightening experience. As a "Teacher," it was great to understand what fulfills me while also recognizing what frustrates me. More importantly, I learned how to manage those challenges and continue growing. Eric's coaching was engaging and provided tools to align with my purpose. I highly recommend his coaching to anyone seeking clarity and personal growth.
I recently had a Purpose Discovery Session with Eric DeLeon, and it was an insightful and valuable experience. Taking The Purpose Factor® Assessment helped me gain clarity on my strengths, but what truly made the session impactful was working with Eric to interpret the results. He guided me through how my natural abilities have already played a role in my life and helped me see new ways to apply them for growth. I highly recommend a session with Eric!
I had the privilege of attending a Purpose Factor session with Eric DeLeon, and it was truly transformative. Eric's ability to guide meaningful conversations and uncover deeper insights is exceptional. His approach helped me gain a clearer understanding of my strengths, motivations, and the impact I want to create in the AEC industry. The session was engaging, thought-provoking, and incredibly valuable in aligning my personal and professional goals.
The Purpose Factor assessment was very insightful, but it was the coaching session with Eric DeLeon that really helped me unpack and critically explore my purpose. When I first read the assessment, I was skeptical about my Natural Advantage of "Builder," but Eric guided me through the qualities, strengths, and blind spots of the Builder Advantage and really opened my eyes to how to work with it to help fulfill my purpose for others.
I am in the middle of a career break actively seeking "what's next." Eric introduced me to The Purpose Factor at the right time — I walked away with absolute clarity on the type of work that really fulfills and energizes me. The "aha" moment was seeing the Healthy & Unhealthy States for my Teacher type. It described exactly where I was before my career break. This is the sort of clarity I needed moving forward.
It is amazing how exact and thorough the Purpose Factor assessment is. When I worked with Eric DeLeon, I got a clear picture of what makes me happy and how I am naturally prepared to do well. It was also helpful to think about things that bother me and possible blind spots. Eric's coaching really helped me understand the test and made clear some important choices I can make to live a purposeful life.
I recently had a Purpose Discovery Session with Eric DeLeon, and it was an insightful valuable experience. Taking The Purpose Factor® Assessment helped me gain clarity on my Natural Advantage, Acquired Skills, Pull-Passion and Origin Strength. What truly made the session impactful was working with Eric to interpret the results. He guided me through how this already plays a role in my life and helped me see new ways to apply them for growth. Thanks, Eric!
From CAD Managers inside AEC firms who invested in building the operating system behind exceptional leadership.
The CAD Manager Mastery program with Eric DeLeon helped me become a more efficient, organized, and confident CAD Manager. Before I joined CAD Mastery, the majority of my day was spent reacting to situations. CAD Mastery helped me take control of my time, organize priorities, and identify goals which led to an overall more proactive approach to my responsibilities. Prior to joining CAD Mastery, I was unsure and insecure of my own abilities and strengths. CAD Mastery helped me to recognize my strengths and weaknesses and to use this information to improve myself as a leader and a manager. Thanks for all of your help and guidance, Eric!
I recently completed the CAD Manager Mastery Program by Eric DeLeon and it has been a positive and impactful experience. This program provided me with guidance on what to focus on in my role and offered a great sounding board for managing various aspects of the position. From working with upper management to helping prioritize tasks, the insights I gained were practical and quickly applicable. Eric's expertise and approachability made the learning process enjoyable and highly effective. I recommend this program to anyone looking to advance their career in CAD Management — it is an investment you will not regret.
The CAD Manager Mastery program was well worth the time spent. Having one-on-one sessions with Eric DeLeon was so helpful for me. Before this I was not sure how to be a leader, having always been viewed as one of the "guys." Now I have more confidence and know how to talk to them as a CAD Manager. I was also not very organized and not sure how to report back to leadership. Eric helped me put together a system that keeps the principals informed and keeps me in control.
I'm thankful to Eric and the CAD Manager Mastery program — both have proven invaluable. Eric is passionate in sharing his vast experience to help CAD professionals develop soft skills to become leaders and highly effective CAD Managers. Highly recommend!

Peer development and structured group coaching for CAD and design technology professionals ready to lead with clarity and intention.
The CAD Momentum Accelerator Cohort is a fantastic program for anyone in a CAD administrator role. It's leadership training specifically designed for CAD professionals, by a CAD professional who understands the unique challenges of the role because he has been in the trenches — just like you. Unlike typical "growth" that just adds responsibilities without support, this course provides intentional development.
The cohort encourages thoughtful introspection about your current situation — what's working, what isn't, and why. You benefit from diverse perspectives across disciplines and experience levels, and receive practical guidance, advice, and — surprisingly — emotional support.
This is a fabulous resource. It has given me a new confidence, a clearer sense of purpose, and a stronger baseline than I had before. I now have concrete goals, boundaries, and a realistic expectation of myself. I don't expect to be in the same place a year from now, thanks to this cohort.
Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this cohort. It has been great to hear from you and others to help me understand where I'm not holding myself accountable, where I can strategize to close gaps, and where I'm spot on.
I hope to continue with this momentum well into this year and accomplish some goals!

Finally, a real world CAD class for professionals in the real world!
I've learned much from Eric DeLeon with his private coaching. He's brought many industry leaders, CAD Managers, aspiring CAD managers and technology experts together with The CAD Managers School. Eric's passion is to guide and teach The CAD Manager "truths" you won't learn in college and that can take a lifetime to acquire. I'm grateful for his invite and excited to continue my education in the CAD Managers School.
Eric DeLeon's Cad Manager School is a professional group that I thought I would never be able to find. There has never been an opportunity for those who are in CAD management to get answers to daily challenges, and learn from others in the field, before Eric started this group. The knowledge pool he has put together is one of my best tools as a CAD manager. I frequently look to, and learn from, the professional opinions of the members here.
I really like being part of this group comprised of those who are at a similar point in their careers. The CAD Manager school has brought together people who are on the same wavelength. Asking work questions we're facing, and all about sharing ideas to help each other out. I would suggest it to anyone looking to level up their game in CAD management and dive into a supportive professional environment.
There are some incredibly knowledgeable CAD users in this group already. I highly recommend it if you do CAD work, to join this group, especially those of you that do CAD management for a living.
Every professional featured on this page made a decision to stop waiting and start building. That moment is available to you right now.
