  • The Herd Mentality
    Businessworld The Herd Mentality CORPORATE The Herd Mentality Following the leader in hordes is a natural business instinct. But how many can last the distance? DINESH NARAYANAN Some regular, peak-hour commuters in Mumbai's crowded local trains have a seat-grabbing strategy they call ‘back maro’ (go back). They board trains moving in the opposite direction so that they are assured of seats when the trains turn around. But the number of such commuters has increased so much that many never manage to get a seat. Stephen J. Dubner, co-author of Freakonomics, gives a similar example of his bus travel in New York and says that people may not like being part of a herd, but psychologically they are somehow comforted by it. They succumb to the “herd mentality” and unthinkingly tag along — because if everyone else is doing it, it must be the thing to do. This human psychology is as prominent among Mumbai and New York commuters as it is among businesses. The phenomenon of hordes of people jumping on to the money-making opportunity in vogue is ages old. History of businesses around the world is peppered with such rushes — from the 17th century Dutch tulip mania when practically everyone in the Netherlands left their jobs to grow and trade tulips; the mid-19th century California gold rush, when people from all over the world flocked to the state to prospect for gold; the dotcom boom at the turn of the millennium; to the private equity and hedge fund craze of today.

  • Indigo and Air India-- on Wednesday Announced
    1 Revue de presse février 2020 The only two Indian carriers that fly to China -- IndiGo and Air India-- on Wednesday announced suspension of most of their flights to that country, while India has requested China for permission to operate two flights to bring back its nationals from Hubei province which has been sealed after the deadly coronavirus outbreak. A fresh travel advisory asking people to refrain from travelling to China has been issued by the Union government which has ramped up screening across airports, ports and borders, as the virus spread to at least 17 countries. No case of the novel coronavirus has been detected in India, though hundreds of people remain under observation in many states including as many as 806 in Kerala, according to officials. With several airlines based in Asia, North America and Europe restricting operations to the region, the Indian carriers too followed suit. The country's largest airline IndiGo said it has suspended its flights on Bengaluru-Hong Kong route from February 1 and on the Delhi-Chengdu route from February 1 to 20. Similarly, state-run Air India is suspending its flights on Delhi-Shanghai route from January 31 to February 14 and reducing the frequency on Delhi-Hong Kong route to thrice-weekly only in the same time period. IndiGo will, for now, continue to operate the Kolkata-Guangzhou flight which it is "monitoring on a daily basis". The crew of the two airlines working on flights connecting India with South East Asian countries have been asked to wear N95 masks on ground and take other precautions like not visiting public places.

  • Emerging Needs and Demands of Airports and Airlines – a Global Perspective
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EMERGING NEEDS AND DEMANDS OF AIRPORTS AND AIRLINES – A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE (11th & 12th of February, 2011) Organised by: The International Conference on: “EMERGING NEEDS AND DEMANDS OF AIRPORTS AND AIRLINES – A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE” 11th and 12th February, 2011 Aviation sector is one of the core infrastructures and a cardinal segment that has been a rapidly growing segment of every economy including the Indian economy, and is one of the fastest budding industries. With the increasing globalization, and opening up of economies, consequential liberalization and revamping of freshly enriched aviation policies, new technological innovation, developments in civil aviation and liberal managements, privatization of airlines and airports, liberal and open skies bilateral and multilateral agreements are just some of the recent developments in the global aviation industry. Deregulation and intensified global competition are compelling the aviation industry globally, to become increasingly responsive, competitive and resultantly more efficient by focusing on their consumer requirements and operations. The technological, infrastructural, institutional, economic and human challenges have prompted those in charge of airlines and aviation-related agencies to effect a shift in their policies and adapt to the latest innovative trends in the managements as well the usage of the technology in administration and better networking. The rapidly growing economies of India and China are no exception to the same. New concepts of ownership and management, leasing and financing are the some of the emerging trends in India. From being a primarily, state owned industry opening up to the private players both in terms of Aviation & Airline operations had resulted in the aviation industry the phenomenal growth of the aviation industry leading to be dominated by a large number of private players, and low cost carriers.
