Behind MPOWER
Eric Stanley, founder and CEO of M2N | Minority Moves Network is an Indiana native and business leader.

With first-hand experience facing the systemic barriers that limit access to many diverse candidates, he knows there is a great demand for a better approach.
Eric is joined full-time by Kristi Amendola. They have a shared vision for a more equitable workforce and have dedicated their time and resources to developing a solution.
