District High School graduates and their career choices
A Jim Etherington: corporates affairs
os
LONDON - "What I learned on the football field at SHDHS (South Huron District High
School) has not been a bad legacy for surviving in business," said Jim Etherington, vice
president of corporate affairs at London Life Insurance Company.
Etherington was referring to how the workplace is changing from a structured top-down
management atmosphere to a more flexible environment that encompasses variable timetables
and focuses on a type of teamwork that delegates individual responsibilities to employees.
"The way in which we define our own future is changing remarkably, " he added, explaining
although "jobs are disappearing...work is still there."
He believes people should be flexible enough to use their skills in a variety of ways and
stresses the importance of education. Etherington, who was born in Hensall and raised on a farm
in Usborne Township, recalls being a student at the same one -room school house his relatives
attended.
Referring to SHDHS, which had 350 students enrolled at the time, he said, "1t was quite a
small school in those days...lt certainly was a centre in the town."
He remembers his sports involvement and school trips to Washington and New York. He feels
high school is a "window" to help determine one's future.
Intending to become an English teacher, the 1957 SHDHS graduate was inspired by his
teacher, C.J. Porter to continue writing. While in high school he had written a satirical play about
royalty and freelanced articles to the Exeter Times -Advocate.
"The early stories I wrote in the T -A did influence my career," said Etherington, who studied
journalism at the University of Western Ontario and worked summers in the air force. He wrote
plays at university and was also editor of the student newspaper, the Gazette, an experience, he
noted, that was more valuable than his journalism courses.
He began his career as a reporter for the Kingston Whig Standard and after two years as
assista at public relations director at Queen's University,
reported and edited at the London Free Press
for nine years.
"In those
days you did everything," he said of the reporting jobs
he liked due to "the self-satisfaction of the by-line."
With young children at the time, Etherington shifted
from journalism to the better -paying prospects of public
relations work.
"1 continued to write every day so I'm still doing
what I like doing," he said, adding he's brought
communication and writing skills to his current job.
Following a year as public affairs analyst for Imperial
Oil Limited in 1973, he managed public relations at the
Royal Bank of Canada, first in Toronto, then in
Montreal. He has been with London Life since 1982,
initially as director, then vice president of corporate
affairs.
His job includes media relations, preparing
communications and corporate writing including
speeches and government relations.
Challenges of the job, he admitted, is "finding time to
do all the things that need to be done."
According to Etherington, keeping up with new
information, completing tasks to deadline and
maintaining good communication skills are key to public
relations work.
In addition to his involvement with fundraising and
numerous London community organizations such as UWO
and Orchestra London, he likes to read, cook and garden in his spare time.
He lives in London with his wife, Liz, who is editor of Canadian News Facts, a bimonthly
news digest. They have two sons, David and Tim.
