Founding and Current Strategy Jet Blue was founded by David Neelman. Its foundation was laid based on the following motto ” bring humanity back to air travel”. He wanted to develop an airline that could provide a home-like ambiance to its customers at low fares. Leather seats, 24-hour live transmission on TVs, gourmet snacks, and a cozy den-like environment was provided to the customers. Neelman pioneered the induction of electronic reservation ticketing in the airline industry. JetBlue’s first major venture was the John F Kennedy airport to take care of flights between New York and Buffalo. The rates offered were 70% less than competitor rates. This attracted the middle-tier income groups of the region. Soon Jet Blue expanded its domestic flight coverage beyond New York to Manhattan and other areas. The expansion was very rapid and was central to JetBlue’s core strategy. From 2000 to 2007, JetBlue increased its domestic flight coverage from 12 to 53. The number of aircraft owned did not rise proportionally. Between 2005 to 2007, the company could add only 40 aircraft while the number of departures grew exponentially from 10000 to 196,594. JFK airport became overcrowded and disturbances created due to weather could not be effectively handled. The worst blow came on 14 th February 2007. The inaction and turbulence caused because of JetBlue’s inefficient operational service, the entire image of the company went down the drain. Its delay rate was 114% and it was ranked as the third most delayed airline in America. The company was incurring heavy losses. the company was not involved in too many diverse activities but the growth was very fast. (RovenPar J, 2008) Competitor assessment The operating costs of JetBlue were lower compared to competitors like Boeing. It offered low fares, served only snacks and other benefits at cheaper rates. The air crafts were new so the maintenance costs were relatively lost too. American Airlines and South West Airlines were incurring higher maintenance costs on the other hand. They were fined due to operational glitches in the aircraft. (Donnelly S, 2001) JetBlue suffered due to technical glitches in its aircraft handling. When the oil prices rose and the government introduced new policies most of the other airlines went bankrupt while big wigs like US Airways opted for mergers with other companies. The focus of all airlines became energy conservation and they started coming up with various tactics to do the same. (Weil.
Students should be aware of all the legal aspects of flight, including travelling, cargo transportation or passengers’ flights. The general rules of mediating and solving conflicts, caused by the violation of Aviation law and illegal actions of some crews. Moreover, students should be aware of the actions in the case of possible terroristic assault and in the case when the lives of the passengers are endangered. It is vitally important to know all the basic international documents of the Aviation law sphere, and pilots should be aware of the domestic legislative regulations of flights and air traffic. The aviation law disputes originally entail the necessity of having the juries which are professionals in the hearings, as possible disputes, conflicts or misunderstandings generally entail essential sorting out of the incoming information, which incorporates numerous technical data and specifications of the aviation sphere. In the light of this fact, it should be stated that the judge should be able to listen to the points of view of various experts, who may clarify the technical aspects of the conflict, as the aviation sphere entails numerous sub-divisions. Consequently, it is impossible to be aware in all the aspects of aviation structure, thus, the person who takes all the decisions independently, without hearing to the others is not suitable for solving the disputes. The Aircraft Navigation Technology which is used by FAA is based on the radiolocation technology and Global Positioning System. The fact is that, the development of aerospace technologies, as well as satellite technologies have essentially simplified the radiolocation and finding the necessary object on the globe. GPS is aimed at assisting a pilot to be aware on the location, where his aircraft is moving, and the radio location is aimed at helping the navigation service locate the aircraft and correct the course of its flight. Federal Aviation Administration’s aim is to control the positioning of all the aircrafts which are above the territory of the USA in order to prevent the high-jacking or at least locating it, and monitor the violations of the flight rules. June 5. an Extra 300L crashed during a training flight near the commune of Clinceni, Ilfov County, Romania ten minutes after departure. The aircraft was prepared for a flight parade for June 6, 2009. Originally, this accident was thoroughly studied, however, experts refrain from making open commentaries. The accident became the reason of improving the system of monitoring the aircraft accidents, as not all the data were available on the aircraft for the moment of the accident. FAA claimed that navigation and controlling structure should be modified. The fact is that, it is hard to disagree with the FAA, as the downsizing of one of the numerous airports is the necessary measure aimed at improving the Aviation services in general, decreasing the expenses for the airports and simplifying the infrastructure in general. Downsizing of this particular airport can not be regarded as something extraordinary The local services are originally faster than the regional airports, as there is no the turn of th
Abstract This paper explores the concept of employee satisfaction and whether a new orientation program, mentoring, or continuous training development program would increase job satisfaction in the work place. All in all the paper highlights several interesting points regarding the practice including its inherent cost versus possible alternatives, the views of various authors regarding its use and finally asks the underlying question of whether it is actually effective in the long term. In order to further explore this topic the researcher utilized a focus group consisting of research subjects recruited from locations near the university, near the central business district of the city and finally near the researchers own home in order to have a diverse array of subjects. A survey method was utilized using the only survey tool surveymonkey.com in order to have an efficient method of collecting the responses and correlating the results. Introduction When it comes to employee retention and performance, job satisfaction is the deciding factor behind such principles of corporate human resource development and as such should be examined from a multilevel perspective in order to ensure employees continue to perform adequately and stay longer with the company (Gill et al., 2012). There are many ways in which this can be accomplished ranging from new orientation, mentoring, continuous job training development and other such factors which contribute towards increased job satisfaction (Jha & Bhattacharyya, 2012). Yet, it must be questioned which particular process is the most suitable for corporations and which is the most preferred by employees. As such this paper will conduct an investigation into the aforementioned processes which contribute to job satisfaction in order to determine which is the most effective. Theoretical Framework Attribution theory centers around the derived assumption of a particular individual/group of people regarding a particular process, product or service based on their experience with it. It is often used as means of investigating consumer opinions regarding a particular product and to determine the level of satisfaction derived from its use. By utilizing this particular theory as the framework for this study the researcher will be able to properly correlate the opinions of the research subjects regarding their assumptions over what practices lead to job satisfaction. Purpose and Rationale The reason behind the creation of this particular study is quite simple, job satisfaction is inherently connected with performance and employee retention rates and as such by delving into t
Introduction The Renaissance and Reformation were some of the most significant events of human history that shaped the future of the world. Many contemporary and modern researchers contributed to reviewing and analyzing the impacts of the changes that happened in the period from 1527 to 1625 in England. The exceptional volume of the innovations introduced to the life of people and the developmental power it had on the country appears to trace the connections of those changes in the 21st century. In this essay, the evolution of the English reformation movement and Renaissance will be discussed in relation to the consequences these events had on the 21st century with evidence drawn from contemporary and modern sources. Evolution of Reformation Movement in England Reformation in England concerns the period from 1527 to 1625 when the principles of the Catholic faith were challenged across many European states. As claimed by many historians, one of the first events that triggered the change was the request of Henry VIII to annul his marriage which is considered a politicized matter rather than a theological one. Later, however, it evolved into religious disputes and reassessment of Catholic religious doctrine in many aspects. The main underpinnings of the Reformation still happened in the political arena. The Catholic doctrine at the time mostly presupposed the union of the church and monarch into a single political power, with the key sources of the political power being the pope and the king. The latter, on the other hand, desired broader freedom of decision-making and resorted to a doctrine that supported such nationalistic and absolutist aspirations. 1 The Supremacy Act of 1534 de-facto declared the submission of the church to the rule of the King of England not in all aspects but in a substantial portion of questions. 2 The harsh response from the pope triggered civil unrest in Ireland, Armada, and other lands under the British crown. Approximately at the same time, the church of England was established, yet its political and
Step 1: Determine Where You Are My healthcare organization is a leading provider of quality services to its patients. The increasing number of calls remains a major at the organization. Teams are essential towards proving quality health services. Teams can identify problems and find solutions to them (Sullivan, 2013). The team members motivate one another in order to achieve the targeted goals. Teams “make decision-making processes smooth and effective” (Lombardi & Schermerhorn, 2007, p. 64). The approach creates a competitive workforce. The members of the team handle every issue affecting different patients. My organization is unable to answer these phone calls due to lack teamwork. Step 2: Identify What Is Important The most important thing is to have teams that can identify challenges and address them. Teams will provide the best services to their patients and clients. Every leader should mentor, motivate, and encourage his or her team members (Lombardi & Schermerhorn, 2007). I will also borrow new ideas from different industries. For example, the military and aviation industries portray the best features of teamwork. The people in a team support one another (Sullivan, 2013). The members also portray the best interactional, communication, and decision-making skills. As well, pilots and co-pilots usually work as a team in order to achieve their goals. This is also the same case in the auto-racing industry. My strategic plan will focus on these practices in order to make the organization successful. Step 3: Define What to Achieve Managers and leaders can use this step to identify their goals and expectations. According to Parsons and Cornett (2011, p. 279), “every leader should improve the level of performance in his or her organization”. I will always empower, mentor, and motivate my nurses in order to achieve the targeted goals. The first strategy is for the organization to create new teams. Every team will have its leader and coordinator. I will use the allocated funds to develop the best teams and empower my employees. I will also use evidence-based practices and theories to empower my teams (Sullivan, 2013). The strategy will provide the best healthcare support to the targeted patients. Step 4: Determine Who Is Accountable The strategic plan will succeed if every person is accountable. I will coordinate the proposed change in order to make the healthcare organization successful. I will appoint new leaders to analyze the progress of each team. I will also recruit a coordinator to ensure the new change is successful. I will also encourage my employee to communicate effectively with one another (Sullivan, 2013). Step 5: Review I will use the review process to examine the strengths and challenges affecting my strategic plan. I will employ various organizational processes in order to solve the problems facing the institution. I will also use new organizational processes such as teamwork, leadership, and proper management. I will also use strategic management to monitor the progress of th
Nurse Practitioner Scope of Practice Ohio’s Board of Nursing outlines specific regulations that govern nurse practitioners’ scope of practice, roles, and responsibilities. The degree of independence is known as collaborative relationship in the state whereby nurse practitioners (NPs) work together with physicians. The written agreement between physicians and NPs is known as Standard Care Arrangement. The web-link to the state’s BON indicates that professionals who want to practice as NPs must complete a master’s or doctoral degree. They should also be certified and possess a valid state license. Ohio endorses a single state license as part of the APRN Compact. This is the case because NPs in the state are not permitted to practice independently. This fact explains why the state is not part of the APRN Compact. There are also no known plans for Ohio to incorporate the licensure solution. The advanced nursing practice title in Ohio is Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN). The recognized APRN roles include those of Certified Nurse Practitioners (CNPs), Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs), Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs), and Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs). Ohio has developed a formulary that indicates specific substances and drugs that can be prescribed by NPs. This includes certain controlled substances as outlined in the Revised Code (section 3719.1). NPs are not allowed to prescribe drugs that can induce abortion. Several requirements are needed to obtain prescription authority. These include Certificate to Prescribe Externship (CTPE), Certificate to Prescribe (CTP), and a Master Degree in Nursing. For the CTPE, 45 hours should be completed in pharmacology. In order to maintain prescriptive authority, NPs must be supervised by physicians indirectly or directly. NPs in Ohio must complete several contact hours to have their licenses renewed. This is a major requirement for maintaining licensure. This is done during every renewal cycle. Some of the targeted areas for continuing education include ethics and pharmacology. Professional Organizations and State Board of Nursing Professional nursing organizations are relevant because they help practitioners widen their proficiencies and ad
Introduction Ergonomic factors are human factors that affect the psychological and physical well-being of workers within an organization. Integrating these human factors together with the philosophies of human resources management into the organizational processes is the best course of action to increase the health conditions of their workers (Nelson et al., 1995). The organization human resources management normally aims at increasing the workers output by ensuring that the workers are satisfied and competent in their work. Therefore, it is essential for the organizations to provide an enabling environment that ensures job satisfaction to the employees. Ergonomic factors are those factors that cause constraints to the workers satisfaction with their jobs. In fact, human factors encompass all environmental and internal organizational factors that affect physical and psychological well-being of the workers. However, ergonomic factors generally arise from sources that are beyond human control, most of which are caused by human errors or assumptions driven by the emphasis of the output with less consideration of the inputs (Nelson, 1995). Within the academic circles, ergonomic factors are grouped into various categories. The categories generalize conditions found in almost all industries and organizations. The categories include factors intrinsic to the job, task factors, the roles of the individuals within the organization, personal interrelationship, career-related factors and the organizational structure (Sutherland & Cooper, 2008). These ergonomic factors are general and affect all organizations and industries. Within the airline industry where the focus will be, ergonomic factors are caused by human errors and less strict adherence to the set regulations. Many airline managers agree that human factors are a consequence of improper human-operated systems, which can be managed. In the case of Delta airlines, the company is using human factors professionals to help in the identification and management of the conditions that may affect the workers physical and psychological stress. Increased interest in the ergonomic factors within the organization is caused by the operational success of the organization when few of the set regulations and conditions to reduce ergonomic factors and errors were implemented. For the organization in the case, how to integrate the ergonomic factors and human resources management is the major concern. This paper will be examining the ergonomic factors focusing on Delta as a specific organization. Finally, the paper offers a proposal for the organization showing on how Delta Corp can make workplace safer, as well as the manner in which the physical and psychological stress can be reduced. First, the paper looks into the literature on ergonomic factors and how those factors affect the physical and psychological well-being of the workers, the work environment and the satisfaction of employees with the work environment. The paper then proceeds to look at how Delta is applying and implementing measures that are supposed to reduce the ergonomic factors within the organization. Ergonomic factors within the
Wesley’s Means of Grace The idea of grace is intrinsically intertwined with the Christian philosophy and is seen as its traditional value, yet its interpretation has seen significant changes. In the Wesleyan tradition, the notion of grace is represented as the state of being that cannot be granted to a Christian immediately but, instead, should be earned through hard work and piety (Mulholland & Barton, 2016). Therefore, the means of grace through the lens of the Wesleyan perspective should be seen as an incentive to practicing Christian values and accepting the Christian philosophy and traditions in their entirety. Unlike other interpretations of the meaning of grace in the Christian tradition, Wesley’s approach toward the subject matter suggests splitting the concept of the means of grace into the works of piety and those of mercy (Nouwen, 1981). Thus, the Wesleyan interpretation of the means of grace is expected to have a gradual yet profound impact on Christians. The described approach to interpreting the notion of grace is quite different from the approach suggested by Calvin, who insists that the notion of irresistible, or efficacious, grace is the correct interpretation (Johnson, 1999). Implying that salvation will occur to those chosen by God, it does not focus on a personal and spiritual journey as much as the Wesleyan doctrine. Specifically, the promotion of unity as the foundational Christian principle should be deemed as the direct contribution to Christians practicing these ideas. However, being overzealous in practicing the described ideas will not lead to positive results. According to the Wesleyan philosophy, maintaining balance in the process of achieving grace is also critical for Christians (Wesley, n.d., I1). For instance, one should bear in mind that God is above all means in the Christian tradition, hence the necessity to focus primarily on the intended outcome of the spiritual development rather than on viewing discipleship and sanctification as the means in itself. Thus, both neglect and overemphasis on the means of grace are believed to have a profoundly negative impact on Christians since each suggests deviating from the process of practicing Christian values. As stressed above, Wesley described the means of grace as a system of two notions, including piety and mercy. Both are typically represented by individual and communal practices, the former implying personal spiritual growth through reading Biblical texts, and the latter suggesting engaging in Christian conferencing (Wesley, n.d., I3-I4). Therefore, Wesley’s approach toward achieving the state of mercy invites possibilities for comprehensive spiritual development, including both individual growth and the acquisition of spiritual knowledge by the entire community. Practicing the Sabbath as a Minister The notion of the Sabbath has a specific meaning in Christianity, with the idea of rest and gladness being the foundation of The Sabbath. According to the Christian tradition, practicing the Sabbath is an essential step in the spiritual development of a Pastor, including those that work in a part-time setting (Olson, ‎Rosell, Marsh, & Jackson, 2018). Thus, a
Introduction Politics is a major aspect of human life whose influence has remained immense and immeasurable in the world throughout history. Both in Europe, Asia, America and Africa, Politics dominate people’s lives in a wide range of ways. Countless decisions and agreements are reached and ratified as dictated by the political atmosphere and other factors. In understanding British politics, the question of democracy and the fight for a fair political ground cannot be undermined. Though millions believe in politics as a channel of advancing human rights, this has not been achieved on a silver platter. The involvement of individuals and organized groups of people in shaping British politics is well documented in history (Budge, McKay & Newton 2007). These efforts are arguably viewed as precursors of the innumerable political gains and milestones that have been achieved. In this regard, the concept of pressure groups has drawn a lot of attention. This essay synthesizes the role and influence of pressure groups in contemporary British politics. To achieve this mega task, definition of pressure groups has been covered coupled with types of these groups and some of the achievements that have been realized in Britain as a result of advocacy groups. Overview Like several aspects of human life that continuously exist, pressure groups are not new in Britain and even in British constitution. It is believed that when viewed from a contemporary perspective, pressure groups date back in the eighteenth century amid the activities of various reform groups in the country. These groups mainly laid their focus on fighting and condemning human injustices that were being propagated by influential politicians and leaders (Budge, McKay & Newton 2007). They also targeted to change the opinion of the public on critical issues and the minds of MPs, who
