ABOUT ME
Eduardo Mendes
Founder and President
Eduardo Mendes is the founder and Executive Managing Director of Lead by the Name. He believes that Jesus Christ is the best leader there ever was and is passionate about helping people follow his example as they live out their calling as leaders. With over 25 years of business experience (11 of those in the non-profit sector), he brings a history of leadership, strategic planning, and team building to every coaching relationship.
Eduardo’s experience has spanned decades as well as countries. He began his career in the non-profit sector in his home country of Brazil. Eduardo currently works and lives in Colorado Springs, CO while also traveling the world helping equip leaders in their cultural context. His cross-cultural experience means he approaches leadership development with a unique perspective that’s essential in today’s global environment.
He received his Doctorate of Ministry in Theological and Ministerial Studies from Servo De Cristo Seminary, an MBA in Business Leadership from Universidade Santo Amaro, and a Master’s in Business Management and Strategic Planning from the Sao Luis University of Business–all in São Paulo, Brazil.
When he’s not inspiring the leaders, Eduardo enjoys spending time with his wife and two sons. Eduardo loves to watch soccer and movies. He likes to travel, hike, and explore new places, and loves to get to know new people. Eduardo has loved Jesus Christ since an early age and enjoys serving in his local church.
Eduardo would love to help you reach your leadership goals.
