About Bob Walters

I borrowed the following saying from a man I think sets a good standard for anyone to follow,\"When a man or woman has the conviction that he or she is doing the work God gave him or her to do, there is a zeal and a courage in his or her soul that all the forces of this world cannot destroy. Dr. Charles Stanley\" End quote. Along with an old favorite,\"I do the best I know how, the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing it to the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me will not amount to anything! If the end brings me out all wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference. Abraham Lincoln\" End quote.Personally, my objective is to serve others, to be effective in whatever I am asked to do, to work hard and never to think more highly of myself than I ought. To coach and teach others what I\'ve learned; and if I have helped someone in this profession to get ahead, then I will have done my job!I am the husband of one wife, the daddy of three children, and the granddaddy of seven; as of this writing. I love the Lord Jesus Christ and I report to Him every morning at 0430, for duty and direction!Thank you. V/R, bw

Experience

1. General Manager Airport Services - Iah

   Spirit Airlines

   May 2013 — Present

   The primary responsibility of a General Manager, as I understand it, is to develop each function of station activity to a maximum, within the given budget, with emphasis on safety standards. The G/M is called to maintain a high level of customer service, which includes but is not limited to on-time performance and efficient ticket counter operation, baggage and customer care processing of this very valuable and highly prized guest!A G/M should become acquainted with local business, political and civic leaders and participate in certain organizations. Specific responsibilities:1. Develop employee skills through training programs, both in classroom and on-the-job with personal guidance and review of employee\'s progress, and/or assisted by the Departmental Training Department; in this case as headed by Team Pat McKee and moderator Bobby Reynolds.2. Be familiar with and adherence to government regulations (FAR\'s and CFR\'s) and company policies, as directed by the company. Place emphasis on adherence to safety regulations. In addition, be familiar with state and local laws affecting any phase of station activity.3. Maintain up-to-date emergency preparedness including telephone lists and review records.The list goes on, but I think you get a sampling of those duties as called upon to perform. I work at the pleasure of Spirit Airlines and as such I am a man under authority. Where I am unable to respond favorably to Spirit\'s traveling customers, please understand this will only occur at such times wherein local empowerments are not authorized; for those times please accept my heartfelt apologies!
