Eric Dillon: It’s not goodbye, it’s CU later

Today's guest is a fitting end to close out the fifth season of the podcast as he recently closed a monumental chapter of his own. Eric Dillon is joining the podcast to reflect back on his 10 year run as Conexus' CEO and discuss how he knew it was time to begin a new adventure. On February 15, Eric sent one of the most difficult emails he's ever had to write as he let the organization know that he would be departing from his role as the CEO of Conexus. With Eric being such an authentic ambassador for Conexus and a beloved community leader in Saskatchewan - this created shockwaves of questions inside and outside of Conexus' walls with people wondering if Eric was retiring, where he was going, and why he was moving on from a place that he is so passionate about. Eric answers all of these questions and discusses how he came to the difficult decision to depart, how hard it was delivering the news that he was leaving and he reflects on some of the highs and lows of being a first-time CEO at Conexus. We'll also hear about Eric's origin story, what has shaped the authentic and progressive leadership style that he is known for, and how he's learned that the little things are often the big things.
