Bio
Eugene Edw. Curtain III
I have had the pleasure to work with Matt on HR developmental projects totaling ten months. Matt is a visionary leader who provides a sense of direction and motivation even in the most challenging environments. A well respected leader capable of driving strategic, technical and tactical functions netting true performance results. Matt is the standard bearer to the team, HR, the global organization and is the benchmark of what a HR professional should strive to become.

Few people have the opportunity to report to a manager who is also a coach and a mentor - but I did when I worked with Matt. I've had the pleasure of working with him for three years and he has taught me so very much. His business acumen is at CEO level and his HR skills are top notch. Matt's calm demeanor and professional but empathetic listening ability endeared him to all employees and leadership at Getinge - he is a genuinely "nice guy" and will be missed.
