Airport slot allocation
(2023)
This dissertation addresses the concept of airport slot allocation as a major regulatory directive in air transport management. In three sequential parts, today’s slot allocation procedure, addressing the assignment of time windows for departure and landing operations at coordinated airports, is being assessed and critically evaluated. The three sections evolve from the evaluation and revision of a suitable criteria set to the development and implementation of a network solution. As a key feature, a carbon emissions price including the air carriers’ CO2 emissions is being provided, serving as the allocation principle. In all three parts, explicit reference to the IATA Worldwide Slot Guidelines, representing today’s regulatory framework, is being provided, highlighting explicit deficits and drawbacks of that solution. In the first part, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), as a concept of decision making based on a comparison of criteria and alternatives, is being applied guiding the allocation decision at a single airport. In this section, a set of multiple criteria is being proposed and weighted according a set of slot coordinators’ preferences. As a key feature, the concept of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is being extended by the conduction of a Pairwise Comparison-based Preference Measurement (PCPM) representing one stage of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). In part two, the perspective of the dissertation changes from a single-point to a multiple-point allocation environment. In this part, a model is being provided that includes the allocation of slots in an airport network. As a key feature, slots are being allocated such that the two complementary cost functions are being minimized. On one hand, the developed carbon cost function includes the minimization of the carbon footprint per traveling passenger. On the other hand, the developed handling cost function is being minimized incorporating a dedicated airport perspective to the solution. In part three, the proposed model is being further extended by the incorporation of a third directive, the minimization of connection cost, related to the application of solution in a hub-and-spoke network. As a result, the study demonstrates how slot allocation can be conducted efficiently in an airport network, and how the consideration of the carbon footprint per traveling passenger serves to calculate the allocation optimum.
Linking talent management and organizational outcomes through the lens of professional football
(2023)
Today's global business landscape is marked by intricate technological and societal challenges, intensified by geopolitical shifts and economic disparities. The expectations for CEOs have undoubtedly evolved, now requiring a form of adaptive leadership capable of steering through unprecedented disruptions, managing vast organizational and environmental complexities, and navigating an unstable geopolitical landscape.
Added to these challenges is the urgent need to build inclusive, purpose-driven organizations that resonate with an increasingly demanding and discerning workforce.
In light of these transformative changes, a pressing question looms large for corporate boards and stakeholders alike: Are European CEOs adequately equipped and prepared for the future?
To address this, we carried out extensive empirical research on the 600 largest publicly listed corporations in Europe across 14 countries. We examined the life histories and career paths of approximately 1,350 CEOs. Our aim is to offer a comprehensive assessment of CEO profiles, highlighting strengths and potential challenges in the face of specific strategic imperatives. Our overarching findings underscore a duality; while there has been commendable progress in certain areas, distinct gaps remain in others, and these disparities further vary across European markets.
