In early 2014, Ferio Pugliese looked back on his turbulent first year as president of WestJet Airlines Ltd's new regional air service Encore. Encore represented the company's most significant organizational change in its 18 years of dramatic growth. Expanding the airline's fleet to include smaller, short-haul aircraft that could service smaller destinations throughout Western Canada had not been without growing pains. For example, a number of employees reportedly felt they were losing their sense of belonging in the company that prided itself on employee satisfaction. Pugliese wondered how he should proceed in putting Encore on a successful path.
