From the reputation of car dealerships to the advancements in technology and the increase in gross margins, the industry has evolved in many ways. To gain insights into these changes and understand how dealerships can succeed in the current landscape, I had the opportunity to interview Nicholaos Gouvouniotis, the Chief Operating Officer of a billion-dollar dealer group with extensive experience in operations and variable ops.?The Changing Reputation of Car DealershipsOne of the most notable changes in the automotive industry is the improvement in the reputation of car dealerships. In the past, there was a negative stigma associated with car salespeople, but that perception has significantly improved over the years. Gouvouniotis shared his experience of witnessing this change, stating, \"I'm offended now when people have a negative connotation or a negative stigma of the automotive industry because there are more priests and police that have drama chaos and you don't see Geraldo Rivera jumping out of the bushes doing an expose on car dealers nowadays.\"This shift in perception is a result of the industry's efforts to improve transparency and customer service. Dealerships have become more educated and aware of the importance of providing a positive buying experience. Gouvouniotis emphasized the need for transparency and building trust with customers, stating, \"The consumer was a different animal coming in the door, and trust and building that rapport was a completely different world.\"?The Importance of Team and CultureGouvouniotis highlighted the significance of building a strong team and creating an exciting and motivating work environment. He shared his experience of turning around a dealership with 130 car salespeople and transforming it into the number one dealership in the nation, averaging 700-800 new car sales per month. He attributed this success to the team's unity and shared mission.To create an exciting work environment, Gouvouniotis emphasized the importance of celebrating individual and team achievements. He mentioned the practice of recognizing top performers and sharing their success stories with the entire team. By doing so, he created a sense of camaraderie and motivation among the salespeople.?The Role of Process and TrainingGouvouniotis stressed the importance of having a well-defined process and providing comprehensive training to dealership staff. He mentioned that many dealerships lack process integrity, which leads to high attrition rates and inconsistent results. He advised dealerships to focus on training their staff on the dealership's specific process and holding them accountable to it.He also emphasized the need for ongoing training and development, not just for salespeople but also for managers and executives. Gouvouniotis mentioned the importance of training on various aspects, including customer service, time management, marketing, and communication skills. He highlighted the need for dealerships to invest in comprehensive training programs that cover all aspects of the business.?Leveraging Opportunities for Immediate Results?When it comes to generating immediate results, Gouvouniotis suggested focusing on three key areas: the sales floor, the business development center (BDC), and the finance department. He advised salespeople to revisit declined deals and explore opportunities for co-signers or alternative financing options. He also recommended reviewing old leads and missed opportunities in the BDC to identify potential sales. Additionally, he suggested leveraging the finance department to identify potential deals that were declined due to financing issues.?Conclusion and Future OutlookThe automotive industry has evolved significantly over the past quarter century, with improvements in reputation, technology, and gross margins. To succeed in this changing landscape, dealerships must focus on building strong teams, creating an exciting work environment, and implementing well-defined processes. Ongoing training and development are crucial for all dealership staff, from salespeople to managers and executives.Looking ahead, Gouvouniotis emphasized the importance of staying adaptable and embracing new technologies and strategies. He encouraged dealerships to continue investing in training and development to keep up with the evolving industry. By doing so, dealerships can position themselves for long-term success and maintain a positive reputation in the eyes of customers.In conclusion, the automotive industry has come a long way, and dealerships have the opportunity to thrive by prioritizing team development, process integrity, and ongoing training. By embracing these principles, dealerships can navigate the ever-changing landscape and achieve sustainable success in the automotive industry.  Resources:Dealer Synergy & Bradley On Demand: The automotive industry's #1 training, tracking, testing, and certification platform and consulting & accountability firm.The Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast: is the #1 resource for automotive sales professionals, managers, and owners.  Also, join The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group today!The Against All Odds Radio Show: Hosting guests that have started from the bottom and rose to the top.  Also, join The Against All Odds Radio Show Guests & Listeners Facebook Group for the podcasted episodes.For more interactivity, join The Millionaire Car Salesman Club on Clubhouse.

An integrated nutrient budget for Lake Conway, Florida, was developed that integrated physical, chemical, and biological relationships. A hydrologic budget was constructed from measurements of stormwater runoff, subsurface seepage flows, and existing precipitation and evaporation data. It was determined that major sources of external nitrogen and phosphorus loadings were from atmospheric loadings, urban runoff, and subsurface seepage. Based upon a simulation model of the phosphorus dynamics of Lake Conway, it was concluded that sedimentation of phosphorus was occurring at higher than predicted rates, nutrient release by submerged macrophytes was salient to phosphorus dynamics, and release of phosphorus by sediments was not a significant internal source of this nutrient.

The accuracy of the wind information used to generate trajectories for aircraft performing Interval Management (IM) operations is critical to the success of an IM operation. There are two main forms of uncertainty in the wind information used by the Flight Deck Interval Management (FIM) equipment. The first is the accuracy of the forecast modeling done by the weather provider. The second is that only a small subset of the forecast data can be uplinked to the aircraft for use by the FIM equipment, resulting in loss of additional information. This study focuses on what subset of forecast data, such as the number and location of the points where the wind is sampled should be made available to uplink to the aircraft.

On 9 September 1977, nearly 8000 white amur (Ctenopharyngodon idella) were stocked in Lake Conway, a five-pool, 1800-acre lake system near Orlando in Orange County, Florida. Stocking rate in each pool varied from 3 to 5 fish per surface acre; the fist weighed from 0.25 to 0.61 kg. The white amur were stocked to control the aquatic plant hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata) and other macrophytes which had reached nuisance levels in the lake. The U. S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station, under sponsorship from the U.S. Army Engineer District, Jacksonville, and the Office, Chief of Engineers, conducted a 5-year study on the effects of stocking white amur on certain biotic and abiotic variables in the lake ecosystem. Studies on the various components of Lake Conway were conducted under contractual arrangement with selected universities and State and local agencies in Florida. The study consisted of a baseline period prior to stocking (January 1976-September 1977), and at least three poststocking years (October 1977-September 1980). Additional studies were conducted on fish and herpetofauna in 1981 and 1982. The results of the Lake Conway project were complicated to some extent by two factors unrelated to the white amur. The most dramatic was uncharacteristically low water levels caused by below average rainfall from 1974 through the end of the study.

A human-in-the-loop experiment was performed at the NASA Langley Research Center to study the feasibility of Distributed Air/Ground Traffic Management (DAG-TM) autonomous aircraft operations in highly constrained airspace. The airspace was constrained by a pair of special use airspace (SUA) regions on either side of the pilot s planned route. The available airspace was further varied by changing the separation standard for lateral separation between 3 nm and 5 nm. The pilot had to maneuver through the corridor between the SUA s, avoid other traffic and meet flow management constraints. Traffic flow management (TFM) constraints were imposed as a required time of arrival and crossing altitude at an en route fix. This is a follow-up study to work presented at the 4th USA/Europe Air Traffic Management R&D Seminar in December 2001. Nearly all of the pilots were able to meet their TFM constraints while maintaining adequate separation from other traffic. In only 3 out of 59 runs were the pilots unable to meet their required time of arrival. Two loss of separation cases are studied and it is found that the pilots need conflict prevention information presented in a clearer manner. No degradation of performance or safety was seen between the wide and narrow corridors. Although this was not a thorough study of the consequences of reducing the en route lateral separation, nothing was found that would refute the feasibility of reducing the separation requirement from 5 nm to 3 nm. The creation of additional, second-generation conflicts is also investigated. Two resolution methods were offered to the pilots: strategic and tactical. The strategic method is a closed-loop alteration to the Flight Management System (FMS) active route that considers other traffic as well as TFM constraints. The tactical resolutions are short-term resolutions that leave avoiding other traffic conflicts and meeting the TFM constraints to the pilot. Those that made use of the strategic tools avoided additional conflicts, whereas, those making tactical maneuvers often caused additional conflicts. Many of these second-generation conflicts could be avoided by improved conflict prevention tools that clearly present to the pilot which maneuver choices will result in a conflict-free path. These results, together with previously reported studies, continue to support the feasibility of autonomous aircraft operations.

The central question of this thesis is: What was the impact of Presidential Decision Directive 56? The U.S. government recognized the need for a more systemized method for managing the interagency response to complex contingency operations, after their experiences in Somalia, Haiti, and Bosnia. In 1997, President Clinton signed PDD 56: The Clinton Administrationαs Policy on Managing Complex Contingency Operations. To determine the impact of this directive, this thesis uses a pre-PDD 56 and post-PDD 56 case study comparison methodology treating PDD 56 as the intervention. U.S. participation in Bosnia from 1995 until 1996 is the pre-PDD 56 case study, and U.S. participation in Kosovo from 1998 until 1999 is the post-PDD 56 case study. The Bosnia and Kosovo case studies are compared using six variables (type, depth, and timing of planning, decision process, funding, and monitoring and modification). Subsequent improvements to PDD 56 illustrate the positive impact that PDD 56 has had on improving U.S. government civil-military unity of effort in complex contingency operations.

A contingency operation is an emergency in which military forces are used to address the outcome of natural disasters, terrorist attacks, subversions, or military operations. DoD involvement in deployed/contingency operations has increased and changed substantially in recent years: support of humanitarian and civic assistance missions and disaster relief has grown, as has the range of missions in which DoD engages. Ongoing support of the conflict in Afghanistan has also required a greater commitment from military personnel and greater diligence on the part of those tasked with the responsibility of financial management prior to, during, and following the missions. As a result of these changes, the need exists for establishing a nonrestrictive Deployed/Contingency Operations Financial Management Guidebook for Marine Corps continuity and consistency purposes. This will provide deployed/contingency Financial Management personnel with references for financial management during a contingency operation. This Guidebook provides nonmandatory guidance on best practices, lessons learned, and expectations.

Autonomous control systems represent a technological barrier from manual and automated operated control systems in an industry wide application. An increase in energy-efficient storage, transfer and use of cryogens and cryogenic propellants on Earth and in space has been observed in space related industries between NASA, government and commercial programs. An increase in efficiency of cryogenic systems demands an increase in the capabilities of the control and monitoring system that manages them. As new technologies are developed for cryogenic systems, complexity and capability increases. The increase in complexities are a natural drive to develop better and more capable health monitoring and control system management. Current research and development efforts lead the Cryogenics Test Laboratory at the Kennedy Space Center to improve its automated control and health monitoring system from a Programmable Logic Control (PLC) based-only system to a fully Integrated System for Health Management (ISHM) - Autonomous Control (AC) capable of performing autonomous operations on a cryogenic propellant transfer system. This ISHM-AC system has been developed and tested by controlling a complete simulated propellant transfer operation. The capabilities and test results of this fully integrated autonomous system for cryogenics propellant transfer operation will be presented in this paper.

There is a growing body of information related to facility indoor air quality (IAQ) and its affect on the health and productivity of building occupants. Indoor air pollution can increase employee absenteeism and reduce productivity. Poor IAQ may be a result of poor building or ventilation design, improper maintenance, or inappropriate energy conservation strategies. To help ensure the health, welfare, and productivity of Army personnel and the performance of Army facilities, installation operations and maintenance (O and M) personnel need access to relevant and useful information about IAQ issues. This report includes background information for O and M managers and staff, an installation-level IAQ management plan, and practical O and M procedures for correcting the problems that most commonly lead to IAQ-related complaints.
