My ambition for EZY this year was to force them to reap the harvest they sow - maybe they finally are. By actually listening to people rather than dimissing them as whinging spoilt primadonnas they have finally realised that most people are totally realistic - we have to deliver productivity but this can still be done competitively with a good lifestyle and minimal disruption. Both pay and rostering negotiations have been conducted in a totally respectful and professional way and I truly believe that it is time for EZY to become a mature airline now and adopt mature policies and practices. However the new management now need to instil this into the people in rostering/crewing and this will require a major change of attitude for some people - the old orange culture might be too ingrained for some so I guess there might be more dead wood that needs removing. Keep the axe sharpened!
