Notas del editor

  1. \n
  2. Herbert Kelleher, former CEO of Southwest Airlines never suited the typical image of an airline industry executive. He earned the title of “Iron Clown” because he took a casual approach to business, chain-smokes like a son of a gun, loves to arm wrestle, but is an admitted workaholic (Jaffe, 1991). His leadership is admirable because of the gusto behind it and the flair of success it ignited in the first ever short-haul airline.\n

  13. Herb is considered one of the best CEO’s in the country. Employees had the utmost respect for Herb because they felt truly valued. His inspiring leadership was the catalyst that spurred employees to go above and beyond their job description. Southwest employees designed and built the first automated check-in kiosk using their own time and resources, because they had the support of their leader.\n His leadership inspires employees to go beyond the call of duty\nHe treated his people like they were number one because he believed in the Golden Rule (Bengston, 2007). Employees were able to benefit and grow through the support of the relationship they had with Keller: he successfully fashioned an open corporate culture that did away with the idea of a rigid communication structure. \n \n
  14. Herb spent a day each quarter on the front lines to experience almost every position in the company (Hollon, 2008). Kelleher’s attitude and demeanor towards his employees illustrated his belief that a corporation is based on its people. Southwest employees enjoy benefits way above industry standard, the company has a 7% turnover rate, the lowest in the industry.\n understood the demands of the job and conditions through first hand experience\n attitude reflected the fact that he valued employees as the foundation of the corporation\n\n
  15. Kelleher was so connected to his employees that he knew many by name; he was deeply respected in return for the relationships he established with all levels of employees. It wasn’t unusual for Kelleher to call on an employee that had fallen ill (Welles, 1992). Kelleher was known for treating his employees like customers and ensuring that they felt taken care of and not like a “cog in the machine(Hollon, 2008).” \n\n
  16. Kelleher had a unique hierarchy of priorities; people and safety were tied for the top position, but the priority of people was relayed through the company culture by the employees, all the way down to the customers. Employees trusted Kelleher based on his integrity that he established through his actions on behalf of Southwest and the relationships with the people of the company. \n\nSouthwest employees are known to frequently entertain and show how much they care. For instance, thanks to the light-hearted corporate culture laid down by Kelleher, it isn’t uncommon for a flight attendant to recite the safety information as they impersonate Elvis (Frandsen, 2009). Kelleher would often show how deeply he cared for his customers and employees by personally responding to their letters (Welles, 1992).\n employees trusted Kelleher based on his integrity demonstrated through his actions and relationships\n

  19. Change and people are the components that allowed Kelleher to lead Southwest to meet the demands of it’s customers. Kelleher empowered his people to initiate change and constantly scrutinize the current system and suggest improvements. Herb often implemented employee suggestions. When there was confusion amongst customers who were throwing away tickets accidentally, Herb went ahead with a simple solution suggested by an employee.\n

  21. Herb’s leadership style developed naturally and became the basis for the company culture, which is remarkable. Love and passion was evident in all of Kelleher’s leadership tactics. Luv and Spirit is how Southwest is differentiated and recognized by customers. The values that Kelleher instilled in the company are the values that create loyal customers, which allowed Southwest to develop into what is today. \n\n
