American aircraft manufacturer, The Boeing Company, has pledged support for Air Peace airlines and its scheduled operations.
Senior Organisational Consultant and Programme Manager, Boeing Global Learning Institute, Harry Magui, made the disclosure when a delegation from The Boeing Company and Cranfield University, a specialist postgraduate university in the UK, visited Air Peace to conduct a five-day in-person classroom training, to fortify safety culture and operational excellence at Air Peace Limited.
In a statement issued by Air Peace, Magui reckoned that the airline has been phenomenal in advancing the local industry.
“So, we are here to support them to harness more opportunities in the future with the Advanced Leadership in Safety Excellence Training for all its top leadership within the organisation. We recognise your achievement and are proud of Air Peace,” Magui said.
He explained that all airlines know, even more so Air Peace, that safety is the number one metric within this industry.
“Without safety, there can be no business in aviation and also, it is a very important metric not just for the airline but also for regulators, but also for the passengers.”
Magui assured that the leading global aerospace company would continue to collaborate with Air Peace in critical areas such as psychological safety, change management processes, safety leadership, crisis management and just culture.
Global Safety & Regulatory Affairs, The Boeing Company, Harrison Debrah, also acknowledged the giant stride Air Peace has made in a very short time.
He said that Air Peace would continue to be at the centre of Boeing Group’s vision for Nigeria and commended the Chairman/CEO of Air Peace, Dr Allen Onyema for his resilience, tenacity and passion.
For Lecturer, Organisational Resilience and Change at Cranfield School of Management, Dr Fabian Steinmann, “We’re now here in Lagos, Nigeria together with Boeing delivering a course for Air Peace. Air Peace just celebrated their 10th Anniversary, so we are excited to engage in wisdom and learn more about their operation because at Cranfield, we really care about the safety of the system, making it robust but also making it flexible to adapt to the ever-changing environment.”
