SofemaOnline (SOL) www.sofemaonline.com Considers Aspects of Aircraft Ground Icing & the potential for Performance Degradation.

Introduction - There is no such thing as an insignificant amount of ice.

As we understand any roughness on an aerodynamic surface (caused by ice, snow, or frost) is likely to disrupt the airflow over the lift and control surfaces of an aircraft.

Frost, ice, or snow formations on an aircraft may decrease the lift and alter the stall and handling characteristics. Aircraft may become airborne in ground effect but be unable to climb.

Sofema Online www.sofemaonline.com takes a look at the process by which an organisation can engage with activities related to enabling Performance Coaching.

What is a Performance Coach?

First, to consider the role of Leaders & Managers, Leaders typically share their visions and drive the business process to reach the goal whilst Managers strive to deliver results by exerting controls within an organisational business structure and within an agreed budget.

The role of a “Performance Coach” is to engage with the client and encourage the client to reach a conclusion without the coach providing your interpretation of events or giving directions. The whole point of coaching is for the client to reach their own conclusions and understandings and to determine their own actions.

Why should we wish to measure the performance of our Compliance Audit Process?

Essentially for 2 reasons

1/ The first is that we have an organisational obligation to ensure both regulatory and organisation compliance and of course there is a cost for this – so the question becomes is the organisation receiving value for money?

2/ The second is because there is a cost associated lets call it a return on investment – if we invest more will we return more- without a measure we will not be able to understand this.

The Internal Audit function was predominantly existing as a mandatory process to ensure and demonstrate compliance is also able to focus on improving business performance and add value by supporting strategic business objectives.

Management communication of the various shortfalls related to the audit findings should be strong and consistent and to be demonstrated to have a contributory impact on a culture of compliance within an organization
