George Works! Lad to Leadership

The Making of a New Canadian

By: George E. Daniels

British citizen by birth and Canadian citizen by choice, George Daniels pens a fascinating autobiography of a life brimming with love, loss, adventure, creativity, personal and corporate achievement and recognition by his peers, Parliamentarians and Legislators. Throughout a multi-layered life, George has worked as a bush pilot, builder, cowboy, commercial pilot, heavy equipment operator, TV tower technician, tour guide, National Advertising and Sales Manager in the worlds of radio, automotive parts and private aircraft, sports promoter and a founding partner of Signature Advertising Inc., a highly-successful national advertising agency. Athletically, he has excelled in skiing, swimming and running and completed six marathon races, including the Boston Marathon, and the first World Masters Games while simultaneously raising a family and battling through the challenges of both personal and business setbacks. A bilingual motivational speaker, he also has found time to serve his community, his Province and his Country as an advocate for the environment, community improvement and important municipal issues, and taking leadership roles in each of the organizations he has served, such as the Andrew Daniels Fish Stewardship Foundation and being a founding member of the Devil’s Glen Ski Club in Collingwood, the Stephen Leacock Festival of Humour in Orillia and the Lake of Bays Heritage Foundation.

The Problem with Survey Research

By: George Beam

The Problem with Survey Research

By: George Beam

The Problem with Survey Research makes a case against survey research as a primary source of reliable information. George Beam argues that all survey research instruments, all types of asking—including polls, face-to-face interviews, and focus groups—produce unreliable and potentially inaccurate results. Because those who rely on survey research only see answers to questions, it is impossible for them, or anyone else, to evaluate the results. They cannot know if the answers correspond to respondents’ actual behaviors (objective phenomena) or to their true beliefs and opinions (subjective phenomena). Reliable information can only be acquired by observation, experimentation, multiple sources of data, formal model building and testing, document analysis, and comparison. In fifteen chapters divided into six parts—Ubiquity of Survey Research, The Problem, Asking Instruments, Asking Settings, Askers, and Proper Methods and Research Designs—The Problem with Survey Research demonstrates how asking instruments, settings in which asking and answering take place, and survey researchers themselves skew results and thereby make answers unreliable. The last two chapters and appendices examine observation, other methods of data collection and research designs that may produce accurate or correct information, and shows how reliance on survey research can be overcome, and must be.
