Who wants what and why? • Should we always go for consensus - diplomacy? • Social Corporate Responsibility • Whistleblower acceptance and protection • Oversight • More data sharing needed • Is it time to focus on SHALL rather than SHOULD?

Great to be back. Celebrity Introductions from our youngest team member Evan Dickson.


It seems that every organisation is looking for good people yet so many companies are desperate for people on seats - new employees.
From incentives to financial rewards for joining. Is this the right strategy?

With this challenge comes:
• References administration
• ID - 5-year background check
• Induction
• On-boarding
• HR support programs - contracts, terms, code of conduct etc.
• Agency support
• Seasonal staff
The situation is reasonable but not sustainable.

The reality is -
Phase 1 Survival
Phase 2 Stability
Phase 3 Sustainability

Difficulties ahead and we need to address them differently.

Recent breaches of security - hacks still have a major impact on a regular business.
A dark world full of Bad actors, Dark web - things that the majority of us would associate with films and sci-fi novels. However, it is the here and now and the all too often practices of our modern world.

• Network Monitoring
• Hacking will happen - Crucial to understanding when it is happening!
o Data points that indicate when and how
• Background checks
• Following best protocol
• Open-minded IT departments - appreciating expert support
• Cyber hygiene
• Insider threat
• Ignorance and ego threat
• Real risk awareness and WCS- Worst Case Scenario

Another week passes - hard not to reflect on the terrible situation in Ukraine.

• More bravery, passion, and national pride.
• Terrible devastation and cruelty.
Impacts on our business seems to be ongoing -
• From lessors now addressing their business options
• Flights impacted or possibly cancelled due to over-fly issues
• Capacity withdrawn
• New surcharges - growing cost
Positive gestures
• Ryanair - Commitment to be the first to fly into Ukraine
• Wizzair - Commitment to offer 100,000. seats
• Airbus pulls out of Russia
• Aeroflot removed from Sabre - GDS providers
Plus, our usual debate over masks!

Well done to EY and recent results plus new destinations

Lastly - reference to a very nice podcast with Rupert Batstone and David Ambridge and a series of 6 episodes coming soon..!

With Oil prices hitting $90 plus there will be even more focus on this enabler/blocker of our fragile industry.

Covid highlighted the benefit of private aviation and indeed the value.

AEG shares with us:

• Education customers on contract fuel - benefits for customers and FBO's
• Value proposition 
• • Beyond contract fuel
  • Rewards Program
  • Fuel Card
  • Carbon Offset Program
• SAF - Sustainable Aviation Fuel
• Ground Handling & Ancillary Service Coordination
• TAX Recovery & Compliance
• Overflight & landing permits

Plus the topical subject matter of:-

• Carbon Neutral Program
• Fuelling Emissions Reductions
• Carbon credits 

How much awareness is actually in place and how much 'Greenwashing' is taking place.

What a terrible week

Ukraine - All thoughts for everyone there, families abroad and anyone involved.

Bravery and loyalty - some incredible media pictures.

How something like this can happen in this day and age is beyond belief.

Let's hope for some positive news of some sort.

Other points:

• More cyber impact -- 

• • Do not assume you are protected - get specialist help. 
  • Contact us if needed as we have several specialists offering support
• Good news for many at Menzies who have worked hard and been loyal to the brand
• • Positive signs for the industry as with so much disruption - supply chain solutions are so critical 
• HKG banning carriers for two weeks etc due to Covid cases on board - does this make sense?

Crazy world!
