“People are the priceless soul of any successful enterprise.”
Steve Townes, CEO ACL Airshop and Founder Ranger Aerospace. He made the statement while ringing in the 25th anniversary of Ranger Aerospace in September this year.
Townes’ comment is particularly relevant in the current global backdrop.
At the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) World Cargo Symposium (WCS) 2022 held in London, last week Brendan Sullivan, IATA’s Global Head of Cargo, outlined four priorities that the aviation sector had to confront head-on. “At this World Cargo Symposium, the question is what issues do we need to tackle together? And I would answer that with four priorities: achieving our net zero by 2050 commitment; continuing to modernise processes; finding better solutions to safely carry lithium batteries. and making air cargo attractive to new talent.”
Lufthansa Cargo’s Chief Commercial Officer Ashwin Bhat made similar comments on the importance of people in the air cargo sector while speaking to The STAT Trade Times along the sidelines of the air cargo India 2022 event held in Mumbai. Citing a popular saying from Africa, Bhat said, “There’s a saying in Africa if you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far go together.”
