Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with deduction and evaluation by watching the videos listed.

Please analyze Southwest Airlines, identify the reasons why the company has been successful in the unattractive industry, and predict its future. You need to research the company, using a variety of reliable sources such as books, journal articles, library database, trustworthy news media, credible Web sources, etc. After collecting relevant information, you need to evaluate and draw conclusions based on deductive reasoning. Your response should include the following segments:

  1. Operational overview of Southwest Airlines. Why is the company so successful?
  2. Current economic condition of the airline industry. How would this affect Southwest Airlines?
  3. Current operational issues or challenges within Southwest Airlines. How can Southwest Airlines take on the issues or challenges?
  4. Trends for the future within the operational segment. How can Southwest Airlines remain competitive in the future?

To effectively address the above questions, you are expected to write an evaluation essay (with the headings preferred) using deductive reasoning. Here are a few tips:

  • The purpose of an evaluation essay is to present an opinion or viewpoint on a subject or body of work. The writer should firstly provide a summary of the article in question, then present a point-of-view supported with clear examples and evidence, using a thorough, well-structured argument so that the evaluation seems reasoned and unbiased.
  • Deductive reasoning starts with a general principle and deduces that it applies to a specific case. Deductive reasoning moves with exacting precision from the assumed truth of a set of premises to a conclusion which cannot be false if those premises are true. Explain the deductive reasoning process applied to analyze the firm’s performance.

In terms of capacity, what steps can transportation companies take to avoid or at least mitigate the negative effects of economic downturns like this most recent one?

The individual project reflection report is a summary of your contributions to the project over the semester, and a reflection on your performance and how you can improve.

The project reflection should contain the following:

  1. Overview of your project contributions.
    • General overview of areas of technical contribution.
    • List completed sprint tasks.
    • Plot of your personal velocity and average team individual velocity over the semester.
  2. Reflection in the areas of technical contribution, teamwork, and communication. Each of these 3 reflection sections should include:
    • Description of what you did well.
    • Plan for improvement for next semester.
  3. Conclusion

In the reflection sections, you should be detailed. Give specific examples of accomplishments and objectives for improvement. For example, “I will be a better team member” is insufficient. Describe the behaviors you will exhibit to improve your teamwork skills, like “I will take on and work diligently to accomplish more tasks” and “I will actively participate in the evaluation and feedback on my teammates’ work,” etc.

Following Instructions are a must:

1. I wanted to send a few tips in regards to writing that will make the great points in your papers even better, more convincing, and more robust. Whenever you make a statement of opinion or assertion, you should address at least one of these questions; why? so what? how? like what? or who cares?. If the opinion or assertion cannot answer or address at least one of the questions above, you should rewrite it.

2. You can support your opinion in one of two ways. The first way is to state your opinion, and then through an exercise of breadth and depth and critical analysis you simply support your opinion by explaining why, so what, who cares, how, like what, etc. Or, in other words you explain why your opinion is credible, believable, and informed. The second way to support your opinion is to find referenced material that agrees with you. Combining both methods together is the benchmark. By doing one or the other, or both, you bring context and credibility to the opinions you present. Thus, your great opinions become believable.

Please read Chapters 7 (The Security Survey: An Overview) and 9 (The Survey Report) in our textbook. Once again, I’d also like you to refer back to the Primer on Security Risk Management and this time, focus on “vulnerabilities.” In addition, read this two-part article by Sean Ahrens, CPP, CSC on Facility Vulnerability Analysis. Note that he refers to the term “Security Vulnerability Analysis,” but what he really means is a “Risk Assessment.” (Sometimes words DO matter.) Other than that foible, it is an excellent article that should be of great benefit to you.

Then view the handout on Risk Assessment Methodologies, and conduct some outside research on “personnel security” and the critical role of security awareness and training. Here are a couple of articles on that subject:

Awareness Training: Strengthen Your Weakest Link

Security Awareness Training from Rapid7

Although they focus heavily on Cyber Security Training, the information applies equally to more comprehensive security awareness training programs. Read them with an open mind and consider the bigger picture.

Planning, Management and Evaluation are important elements of a security program (and a CSO or Security Director’s responsibility). Here is a brief overview to read.

In terms of our industry sector for this week, read these two articles on hospital security. Once again, they are slightly dated, but contain excellent and relevant information. I especially like the fact that “Security: Stat,” an excellent article, was written by a nurse rather than a security professional.

Security: Stat

Hospitals: How to Assess Resource Allocation

Discussion

Please participate actively in the following discussion this week:

In today’s world, organizations have a lot to worry about. There is the threat of terrorism, the ongoing fear of cyber attacks, corporate scandals and a rash of mass shootings/assaults. Add to this, the fact that women generally seem to have gained equality in the professional workplace. After all, we had two prominent women running for President of the United States in the most recent election. One was formerly the CEO of one of the largest tech companies in the world and the other was formerly the Secretary of State as well as a US Senator.

In light of these points, is the issue of sexual harassment still a relevant concern in the typical workplace? Why or why not? To what degree should businesses/organizations dedicate valuable resources to training, prevention and preparedness to the issue of sexual harassment? Finally, does “security” have a role in all this or is it purely a “Human Resources” issue?
