Lines of Excellence Consulting was founded by Erica Rivera, PsyD. as a solution to challenges in the workplace in the areas of interpersonal relations and communicating employee needs in a way that is both effective and beneficial to both employee and employer.

As the Principal Consultant, Erica focuses on enhancing leadership by developing the individual personal strengths of professionals. Having worked with employees of large and small corporations, as well as solo entrepreneurs, Erica is exceptionally competent at assessment and analysis of work environment behavior, and has keen insights into understanding how one's personal factors contribute to behavior. In addition, having excelled in the fast-paced corporate environments of public relations, the entertainment industry, and finance, Erica fully understands the importance of taking initiative and being strongly team and goal oriented. In her opinion, doing excellent work is only half the battle; an essential element of one's skill set needs to include the ability to communicate ideas in ways that people can truly relate. Only then can a leader be effective at creating training opportunities for development.

Erica often collaborates with a variety of solo-entrepreneurs and consulting firms to deliver all-encompassing workshops and seminars. Additionally, she draws upon her business networks to serve the explicit needs of her clients.
