    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:





    Singapore

    Airlines (SIA) is widely acknowledged as one of the leading airlines, if not the

    best airline, globally. This book provides insights into a simple but intriguing

    question: How has SIA managed to outperform other flag-carriers for decades, in

    an industry where it is notoriously difficult to succeed consistently?





    Flying High in a Competitive Industry begins with an analysis of the airline

    industry and its key trends, moving on to a broad outline of SIA's strategic

    drivers of success. Empirical research was conducted at SIA to gain a deeper

    understanding of its strategy, core competencies and internal organization,

    innovation processes, and human resource practices, in order to distill strategy

    lessons that can inform the strategies of any organization competing in

    intensely competitive industries.





    The book ends with some strategic lessons that we believe apply to any

    organization that aims to achieve sustainable success in hyper-competitive

    markets.
