Steven J. Anderson

Steven J. Anderson, Eagle U. Founder, has spent over twenty-two years working with professionals and emerging professionals to help them develop better leadership and communication skills. Early in his career, Steve noticed that many who were well into their careers were still asking themselves the same questions many college students ask: What should I do for a career? What direction would make me most happy? How can I find the career in which I can be the most successful? Having engaged in an unusual and extensive career search before graduating from college, Steve set out to help young people avoid the trap many adults find themselves in — boxed into a career that is unfulfilling with no way out. To that end, Steve founded Eagle U, a success skills and career development program designed to help high school and college students get a significant career head start and avoid the common obstacles most people face. Since 1989 Steve Anderson has spoken to, coached and mentored thousands of young people. He is the author or co-author of five books, dozens of audio and video learning programs, a frequent contributor to magazines and newsletters and is a featured speaker at conventions and meetings throughout North America.
