慈青接棒傳遞人文 家族媒體匯聚清流
- Article Details
一般人對於電影院的觀念大部分停留在娛樂服務業，單純提供人們一個休閒的場所，然而秀泰影城的經營方式不僅是給予大眾一般電影院的歡樂，更是時常為員工安排人文講座，邀請各界人士前來分享環保人文的理念與時事文化等主題，讓員工在工作之餘仍有機會提升心靈。大愛感恩科技執行董事 李鼎銘師伯於2013年12月底應總經理 廖偉銘師兄之邀，前往位於板橋的秀泰影城與同仁們分享大愛感恩科技背後的品牌理念與環保精神。除了 廖總與妹妹 廖語晴師姊親臨現場聆聽以外，另有員工四十餘人，皆為大愛感恩科技的環保科技與完全回饋的理念所感動。
曾經身為慈青的他對 證嚴上人所提倡的環保更是身體力行，除了隨身自備小水杯外，也節省紙張的使用，而外出時更是隨身攜帶環保筷。這樣的理念與大愛感恩科技所提倡的環保人文不謀而合，也同身在慈濟這個大家庭裡，廖偉銘師兄與大愛感恩科技的李鼎銘師兄牽起了一份緣，進而邀約前去為秀泰的員工分享。 李鼎銘師兄除了簡單分享自己走入慈濟的因緣與恆持的過程以外，也用淺顯易懂的方式向在場媒體人分享大愛感恩科技背後的環保人文與完全回饋等核心價值，最後，李師兄除了呼籲在場的聽眾能提起愛護地球的觀念外，亦開放現場熱烈Q&A問答。
在媒體界，能有這樣獨特又富有人文的經營理念，應歸功於 總經理廖偉銘的想法與人生背景， 廖師兄早期曾是美國紐約的慈濟大專青年聯誼會（慈青）幹部，曾參與慈濟海外第一批的翻譯志工，主要負責慈濟 證嚴上人的影音和書籍等作品的翻譯。如此特殊的因緣，讓廖偉銘得以接觸慈濟與佛法，更是堅定了日後把握機會宣導這些理念的使命感。因此，廖師兄於2003年回國接下家族事業，承擔起秀泰影城的總經理一職後，仍不忘時時於職場推廣慈濟理念，常邀請慈濟人去秀泰影城分享，藉此平台積極說法傳法，成為媒體清流。大愛感恩科技於板橋秀泰影城的分享持續一個多小時，在愉快的互動下畫下了句點，然而大愛感恩科技背後的理念與影響將持續下去，希望能藉由各行各業的力量，傳遞給各界人士，一同護持，讓我們的地球能夠永續美好。
