2) How IC System has outperformed its competitors using new communication systems despite the consumer payment issue

Erickson started his career at IC System as a collector, 26 years ago. Erickson has helped grow IC System into the company that it is today and was awarded the Vistage Minnesota IMPACT award in 2017.
