What a fantastic new management tool.
Goes something like this.
(TCAS): "We need to change the reserve system because we know of one more cost efficient, but the boys probably wont like it. What shall we do."
(Brown nosed office guy wearing long sleeve shirt and tie): "I know, lets introduce a poll on that new portal thingy. Who cares what the results are, because we dont have to tell them what the real policy is anyway. We'll work out a system that suits us, run a quick poll, tell them the results were, lets say, 65% in favour (No need to publish the results because this isn't a democracy after all)."
"We'll have the plan on the shelf and should be able to roll it out in a month or so, and we'll be able to tell them that it's the plan they voted for, what do you think?"
Man management at EK is a wonderful thing.
