Qantas Business Model
1.Threaten and intimidate employees
2.Establish "silos" so that each unit competes for work and capital.Execs paid bonuses for reducing costs.
3.Delayed expenditure seen as a way to reduce costs in the "short term". Maintenance and ontime departures suffer
4.Jet Star established as a "transfer of business"model to further drive down costs.
5.Cost apportioning makes Jet Star appear successful
6.Exec bonuses rise exponentially.
7.Delayed expenditure sees hard product decline in quality
Result::Qantas is stuffed.Dixon flies off with $11million.
NB.The employees had nothing to do with this.Like the travelling public they are victims of it.
Blaming recalcitrant employees for Qantas' current plight is pure spin.Employees future is tied to the success of the business
