There are Ten Essential Elements that serve as the structure for your Flight Request Stimulator System. When we begin with a client – the first action we take is to conduct a “Primary Assessment” of your current system – just as we would conduct a primary assessment of a patient.
THEN; We generate a brief that identifies first – what is in place and operating effectively. This – then – is amplified. We help you to leverage your strengths!
THEN: We begin the process to identify weak or non-existing elements and set forth a plan – based on criticality – to fortify or put in place.
In time we assure that all ten elements are operationalized to enable you to OWN YOUR SKIES!

Digital Outreach – how intensive is yours? Do you have all 5 elements active with your podcasts, blogs, video-streaming?

We all know that the surest way to earn and stimulate flight requests is by setting up customers for success. When we do this we begin to build CMAARs (a Critical Mass of Authentic Appropriate Relationships.) We believe there is much more to this than simply “Relationships.” Out Flight Request Stimulator online learning informs on why CMAARs are deeper, richer and much more lasting than traditional relationships.
Partnering is essential for success. Over the years we have helped many clients as they seek to manage many partnering encounters to keep aligned. Because there is so much at stake – we created our EBP (EFFECTIVE BUSINESS PARTNERING) course that helps flight programs to truly achieve Win/Win partnerships with Operators, Vendors and other stakeholders.
Are you an EOO (Elliptical Orbital Organization)? Is the customer at the center of your orbit at all times? Are you sure that individuals at every level of your flight program are taking turns to engage closely and from afar with your customers? Then – intersecting with each other to communicate – collaborate and solve problems for customers. Our Flight Request Stimulator online learning will inform your staff about the essentials to be an EOO – to get your customer centricity central to every act, word and deed.
Andy Grove – while CEO at Intel expressed that his method to make decisions was based on asking about input, “Is this signal or noise?” We incorporated this cue from Andy and created our SIGNALMETER as a metaphor to monitor input. This is used to help our client as we work with them on planning, strategy and tactics to eliminate noise and achieve signal clarity in their communications and outreach.
IT’S ALL ABOUT EXECUTION! How often do the best thought-through plans fail? Why? We all realize that EXECUTION is a skill-set and system unto itself. Do you have an execution process that all staff know and use? If not – we have a 5-Step execution process called the EXPECTool that your staff can use to be consistent and certain as you go about the execution of your plans to earn and stimulate flight requests.
The number one mistake we find flight programs making is that during Outreach – they talk too much, boast too much, brag too much and overwhelm individuals with information. Often times – information that has no meaning or worth to them. In our Flight Request Stimulator online learning we inform about AIL (Authentic Immersed Listening.) It just may be the single most important skill required for your flight program to earn and stimulate more flight requests.
Being highly effective at earning and stimulating flight requests is not rocket science … it is SPROCKET SCIENCE! It’s all about synchronization. There are many moving gears that must operate in-synch when earning and stimulating flight requests – we can help you better coordinate your Outreach (Human and Digital) and empower you to be infinitely more in-synch with customers than are your rivals.
How many of your staff are professionally trained and certified as Outreach Practitioners? We certify clinicians, we certify Communication Specialists, we license pilots, our maintenance professionals attain certifications and credentials – therefore – does it only make sense to professionally educate and certify those that we entrust with customer engagement to earn and stimulate flight requests? We have created OutreachU the only course of its kind designed by professionals in critical medical aviation for professionals in critical medical aviation.
If you are serious about how your staff engages with customers and community – then OutreachU will provide state of the art skill sets.
Have you designated individuals that are leaders at customer focus? Sure – it’s part of every individual’s job to maintain high customer focus – however – when your program designates individuals to be a “CUSTOMER FOCUS CAPTAIN” with clarified expectations and duties – then you’ll find substantially higher concentration on keeping your customers at the center of all actions and decisions. We can help you implement a system that includes a rotation of Customer Focus Captains.
