A management reset may be in order at The Boeing Company (BA) , contends the CEO of Irish budget carrier Ryanair Holdings PLC ( RYAOF ), after a string of delivery delays and disputes over pricing negotiations have clouded the business relationship of the two companies. Key Takeaways Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary said that Boeing's management needs a shakeup after a number of delivery delays and stalled pricing negotiations with the company. Ryanair ended negotiations to purchase up to 250 MAX 10 planes in September 2021 after pricing negotiations with Boeing broke down. Boeing's 737 MAX 10 and 787 Dreamliner have suffered major delivery delays due to certification and manufacturing issues.

"I thought that was it," he told a local radio station. At the time, his Labor Party trailed behind the conservative government in opinion polls, struggling to cut through during the pandemic. But the near-death experience changed his life, Albanese told media. In its wake, the opposition leader, 59, recovered on all fronts: overcoming serious injury, shrugging off rumblings of a party leadership coup and shedding 18 kilos (40 pounds) -- an image revamp that raised some eyebrows. His suits went from baggy to tailored, his bookish wire-framed glasses switched for "Mad Men"-style … [Read more...] about Australia PM contender overcame crash, party coup rumblings

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin With news emerging that the NCAA’s Transformation Committee’s work may have hit a roadblock, Division I athletics directors and presidents still need guidance in order to prepare for the fast approaching changes. Savvy leaders are tracking several developing issues, including the new Big Ten Conference media rights deal (which some have projected will double annual institutional payouts to $100 million or more). Many are also planning for an expansion of the College Football Playoff to 12 teams, which could be a huge financial windfall for those conferences (and independents) who are part of that collection. It can be overwhelming to track on all of these moving pieces, particularly if you are a Group of Five or other mid-major program. To help Presidents and senior campus leaders assess where your institution is currently, here is a checklist to begin comparing your institution’s readiness for this new landscape: … [Read more...] about Defining Athletic Success In The New ‘Transformation’ Era: A Challenge For Mid-Major Division I Schools

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Higher education has been the bedrock of our society for over 300 years, with just under 4,000 degree-granting institutions. Recently, however, skyrocketing tuition costs have created several challenges and have the general public questioning the value and purpose of higher education. With much public outcry on the value proposition of higher education, can the industry be sustained or reinvented? Many articles have been written about higher education “landlords,” as institutions compete for students based on amenities and facilities. This intense competition for colleges and universities to attract students has resulted in expensive amenities and accommodations to convince students to attend. While this is a nice to have for students, it has also driven up the cost of a college degree to the point where many cannot afford a degree. As competition increases and state and federal subsidies decrease, these additional costs are … [Read more...] about Leaders Share Strategies To Reinvent Higher Education

- A + A (May 18): Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani are profiting from a surge in global commodity prices triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, burnishing their fossil-fuel credentials even as Asia’s richest men publicly push their pivots toward greener energy. With coal prices skyrocketing to a record, Adani’s conglomerate is expanding a controversial mine in Australia to meet demand. Ambani’s Reliance Industries Ltd is snapping up distressed crude-oil cargoes at discounts to feed its refining complex, the biggest in the world. Reliance even deferred a scheduled maintenance of the facility to help churn out more diesel and gasoline, whose margins have shot up to touch a three-year high. The two Indian tycoons are stepping in at a time when many developed countries are scrambling for alternative sources of fuels as they try to back away from Russian supplies. This month, the Group of Seven most-industrialized nations pledged to ban imports of Russian oil. The … [Read more...] about Asia’s two richest men reap windfall from surging oil, coal

What does it take to trigger a crash in the stock market? A once-in-a-century pandemic? The biggest war in Europe in 70 years? The US Federal Reserve instantaneously cutting off the supply of the opium of record liquidity and low interest rates? Multi-year high inflation? How about black magic? The Oxford Dictionary defines black magic as a type of magic that is believed to use the power of the devil in order to do evil. In a world where boring financial data, profit and loss statements, and complex macroeconomic events sway the everyday movement of stock prices and stock indices, one Rajkot-based stockbroker claimed last week that he spent more than Rs 8 crore to engineer a multi-day crash in the stock market with the help of esoteric black magic. Close “We are responsible to a great extent for today’s fall and the fall of the past few days in the market.

- A + A (May 18): He was a hedge-fund manager supposedly under the watchful eye of a “master cop” — an Allianz SE unit that policed his every move. Instead, US authorities say, Greg Tournant sold lies to investors that cost customers, and now Allianz, billions of dollars, and resulted in a guilty plea to federal charges of securities fraud by Allianz Global Investors US. News on Tuesday that the US unit of the German insurance giant was admitting guilt over the collapse of its Structured Alpha group of hedge funds leaves many questions unanswered, including a big one: Will Tournant, who had told investors Structured Alpha would do well whether markets went up or down, end up in prison? For Allianz SE, Tuesday’s development brought an end to legal headaches that have engulfed the German insurer since the funds imploded in March 2020, when financial markets reeled during the early days of the pandemic. The demise of the Structured Alpha funds is just the latest … [Read more...] about Allianz fund managers’ paydays could be followed by prison
