1.) First Question on Class – the class Circle Given the code below, modify it so that it runs. This will require you to add a class declaration and definition for Circle. For the constructor of Circle that takes no arguments, set the radius of the circle to be 10. You are to design the class Circle around the main method. You may NOT modify the body of the main method in anyway, if you do your code WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED, AND WILL BE GRADED AS ALL WRONG. For this question, YOU MUST capture the output of a run of your program and submit it with your source code as your solution. (TIP: the formula to find the area of a Circle is pi times r squared, or PI * r * r).

#include using namespace std;

const float PI = 3.1416; i

nt main() {

Circle c1, c2, c3; c

1.setRadius(1.0);

c3.setRadius(4.5);

Circle circles[] = {c1, c2, c3};

for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {

float rad, diam, area;

Circle c = circles[i];

rad = c.getRadius();

diam = c.getDiameter();

area = c.getArea();

cout << "circle " << (i) << " has a radius of: " << rad << ", a diameter of: " << diam << ", and an area of: " << area << endl;

}

return 0;

• Prompt: Review and respond to the three questions presented in the “The ‘People’ Focus: Human Resources at Alaska Airlines” case at the end of Chapter 10.
• Requirements: A 250-word minimum, APA compliant paper addressing all three questions. Regarding Question 2 – is there a biblical basis for employee empowerment? The final section is to include an analysis of how you see the approaches stated either aligning with or going counter to Scripture. How do Genesis 1:26-27 and 1 Peter 5:2-3 apply to this case?

The “People” Focus: Human Resources at Alaska Airlines

With thousands of employees spread across nearly 100 locations in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, building a committed and cohesive workforce is a challenge. Yet Alaska Airlines is making it work. The company’s “people” focus states:

While airplanes and technology enable us to do what we do, we recognize this is fundamentally a people business, and our future depends on how we work together to win in this extremely competitive environment. As we grow, we want to strengthen our small company feel . . . We will succeed where others fail because of our pride and passion, and because of the way we treat our customers, our suppliers and partners, and each other.

Managerial excellence requires a committed workforce. Alaska Airlines’ pledge of respect for people is one of the key elements of a world-class operation.

Effective organizations require talented, committed, and trained personnel. Alaska Airlines conducts comprehensive training at all levels. Its “Flight Path” leadership training for all 10,000 employees is now being followed by “Gear Up” training for 800 front-line managers. In addition, training programs have been developed for Lean and Six Sigma as well as for the unique requirements for pilots, flight attendants, baggage, and ramp personnel. Because the company only hires pilots into first officer positions—the right seat in the cockpit, it offers a program called the “Fourth Stripe” to train for promotion into the captain’s seat on the left side, along with all the additional responsibility that entails (see exterior and interior photos of one of Alaska Airlines’ flight simulators on the opening page of this chapter).

Customer service agents receive specific training on the company’s “Empowerment Toolkit.” Like the Ritz-Carlton’s famous customer service philosophy, agents have the option of awarding customers hotel and meal vouchers or frequent flier miles when the customer has experienced a service problem.

Because many managers are cross-trained in operational duties outside the scope of their daily positions, they have the ability to pitch in to ensure that customer-oriented processes go smoothly. Even John Ladner, Director of Seattle Airport Operations, who is a fully licensed pilot, has left his desk to cover a flight at the last minute for a sick colleague.

Along with providing development and training at all levels, managers recognize that inherent personal traits can make a huge difference. For example, when flight attendants are hired, the ones who are still engaged, smiling, and fresh at the end of a very long interview day are the ones Alaska wants on the team. Why? The job requires these behaviors and attitudes to fit with the Alaska Airlines team—and smiling and friendly flight attendants are particularly important at the end of a long flight.

Visual workplace tools also complement and close the loop that matches training to performance. Alaska Airlines makes full use of color-coded graphs and charts to report performance against key metrics to employees. Twenty top managers gather weekly in an operations leadership meeting, run by Executive VP of Operations, Ben Minicucci, to review activity consolidated into visual summaries. Key metrics are color-coded and posted prominently in every work area.

Alaska’s training approach results in empowered employees who are willing to assume added responsibility and accept the unknowns that come with that added responsibility.

Discussion Questions*

1. Summarize Alaska Airlines’ human resources focus in your own words.
2. Why is employee empowerment useful to companies such as Alaska Airlines?
3. What tools discussed in the chapter might be employed to enhance the company’s training and performance efforts? Why?

professor instructions for the assignment: You can earn extra credit if you read an article or news item about a project we discussed in class and write a 2 page reaction paper about it. Your paper must tell me about the project you read about, what makes it a sustainable or resilient project, what are the impacts, what did you like about the article, what did you not like, etc..

I would like to write about this new project that would expand public transportation in the Soundview area of the Bronx. An abandoned dock is being remodeled and rehabilitated for the project which is planning to open during summer 2018.

This is an article I found online that talks about this project.....

Ferry service to Soundview should be a reality this year, and some are calling for even more service in transit-starved east Bronx waterfront communities.

The route of service that includes Soundview’s ferry stop, is scheduled to begin service later this year from Clason Point Park, and the ferry dock is now under construction, according to NYC Economic Development Corporation.

As that plan inches closer to becoming a reality, the borough president used his 2018 State of the Borough speech on Thursday, February 22 to advocate for additional ferry landings.

“Ferry service is coming to Soundview, and should come to Throggs Neck and City Island as well,” said Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr.

Diaz’s spokesman let the quote stand without further elaboration, but in the two east Bronx communities, leaders who have long advocated for ferry service made their case for additional stops.

Robert Barbarelli, Throggs Neck Home Owners Association board member, said he believes that ferry service could come to Throggs Neck, adding that S.U.N.Y. Maritime already docks a large training vessel in Throggs Neck.

“The waterways are not used enough which I think is a reason why there are always traffic issues on our roads,” said Barbarelli. “Utilizing waterways is a faster and more scenic route to get downtown.”

Dotti Poggi, Ferry Point Community Advocates leader, said that Ferry Point Park has a parking lot that could be used for ferry customers.

“Ferry Point is a perfect place because it has already has the infrastruc­ture,” she said.

John Doyle, City Island Civic Association officer said he believes that one appropriate location for a ferry stop could be Orchard Beach, because it already has an large parking lot that is underutilized for nine months out of the year.

“Just having this mentioned in one of these speeches is helpful as this point,” said Doyle. “I am really hoping that when the Soundview ferry comes into service that it is super successful, because then we can build on that success.”

William Rivera, Community Board 9 district manager, said that the final details for the Soundview ferry are being worked out, including expanding service on the Bx 27 and Bx 39 buses by one stop during hours of operation so that commuters don’t have to walk far from the bus to ferry.

He is also involved in the planning of a community meeting in Clason Point that will take place prior to ferry operations starting.

Also being worked on are issues related to security, safety, lighting, parking, bathrooms and amenities at the Soundview ferry.

“Everyone supports the ferry, we just make sure it is done right,” said Rivera.

An EDC spokeswoman said stops along the ferry route servicing Soundview have changed in Manhattan, with an East 62nd Street stop dropped and an East 34th Street stop added.

The spokeswoman said that EDC “will begin to analyze ridership potential and landing capabilities for future expansion to other communities once we successfully implement 2018 routes this summer.”
