作者简介 After 22 years in the Canadian Armed Forces serving as an aeronautical engineer, Doug Matthews began his second career in the entertainment industry when he joined Pacific Show Productions in 1985. This company produced special events and entertainment in Canada and overseas for many diverse clients. For example, these included: original musical theatre productions in Barkerville, BC; the millennium First Night celebrations in Vancouver, BC; the annual Leo Awards for BC film and television; and four entertainment show tours for the Canadian Armed Forces to the Arctic, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Cambodia, Egypt, and Israel. Pacific Show Productions was regularly nominated for special event awards both in Canada and the United States and won several awards under Matthews's leadership. The company was sold in 2004. Matthews is an accomplished speaker, delivering seminars at special event conventions and courses at community colleges in the areas of entertainment, creativity, and event production management. He is currently on the faculty of Capilano College in North Vancouver, BC, where he teaches Special Events as Tourism Generators and Advanced Special Event Planning and Production to Asian and North American students. Matthews remains involved in the industry as a member of the Canadian Special Event Society and serves on the advisory board of an international consortium of special event production companies called TEAM Net, based in Atlanta, Georgia, of which he was president in 2002-04. His published articles range from technical engineering papers for military audiences to pieces for special event publications, as well as original music and mini-plays. His most recent publishing success is a self-published book on special events, How to Create Fantasies and Win Accolades: A Practical Guide to Planning Special Events, which has received critical acclaim in the USA and Canada.
编辑推荐 Review
"This book is a great success on several fronts. It identifies and frames the key issues extremely well, the examples are fascinating and always to the point, and the advice is well thought out out and very practical. Recruiting, Retaining and Promoting Culturally Different Employees leaves the reader wanting more, not because the authors have left anything important out but because their insights are so valuable." - Craig Storti, Intercultural Consultant and Trainer, and Author of The Art of Crossing Cultures "This work is an invaluable resource for global recruitment. Leading organizations agree that a diverse workforce generates the resilience necessary for a sustainable future. Yet traditional hiring practices obstruct the goal of achieving an ideal employee base. Finally, we have an illuminating, practical guidebook which explains cultural differences in the workplace and expands our worldview." -- Noel Kreicker, President, IOR Global Services "From a talent management perspective North America is in a 'perfect storm'. Increased globalization, demographics and fierce competition for scarce human capital means organizations are grappling with issues of attraction and retention of employees. Into this storm come Lionel Laroche and Don Rutherford with a beacon of light to guide us. Those who read and embrace the concepts in Recruiting, Retaining and Promoting Culturally Different Employees will find they are being given both the vessel and guidance necessary to weather the storm and will come out the other end wiser, stronger, and fully able to capitalize on the 'Diversity Advantage'. This is a must read book for recruiters, managers, recent immigrants and anyone in a culturally diverse workplace. Each chapter crisps down complex issues and ideas into bite sized bits of information that are wrapped in stories we can all relate to. The book lays out in an easy step-by-step fashion do's and don'ts from the recruiter/manager and the applicant/employee perspectives." -- Michael Hazell, President, The Talent Management Company, Career Partners/Hazell Associates ...aimed at HR practitioners, line managers, culturally diverse employees and organizations that help immigrants find jobs-examines how cultural differences affect nuts-and-bolts employment issues like resumes, job interviews, orientation, manager-employee relationships, teamwork, career management, retention and promotion.-HR Magazine, March 2007
