As a retired Southwest Airlines pilot I had several occasions in my career with that great company to personally meet and speak with Herb and he is the genuine thing.....always outgoing, interested in his employees and openly friendly to all. He will be dearly missed.
One of the many reasons I chose to remain with SWA for almost two decades was because of the leadership of this man. What Herb taught me was far more valuable than an education at the most prestigious ivy league school.
Yes my teacher Mr. Kevin Zadai who was a flight ✈️ attendant on southwest for many years always speaks highly of Mr. Herb and his great Leadership and how he truly genuinely cared for ppl. 🙂
Herb(the best boss),was a true leader.He proved that leadership without ego exists and a leader can be a human being as well.His legacy will definitely be with us for a long time.He will be greatly missed.
Herb is a prince. Many decades back, when I lived in California, I would write letters to him, each of which he always personally replied to. Imagine writing to Robert Crandall and receiving a reply.
This video showed me how it's possible for 5 mins to pass at the blink of eye despite intensive engagement (note-taking, etc.). Wow, I subscribed to WOBI just for the wow factor that this material provided.
What you see here is what you got....Herb was the real deal. I was blessed to have 30 years flying for SWA and truly loved it all. Herb was one-of-a-kind. RIP!!
Thank you Herb for these wonderful words of Wisdom, and the Company that continues to, ( in spite of trying times lately), lives those words! We ❤ and miss you every day!
1:43 Hire for attitude, train for skills, and look for leadership capability in every potential employee. Bad attitudes metastasize in your organization no matter where they’re located.
Sir, the work culture you have in your company is too free to make decisions and to laugh at our own mistakes ... I really loved your work culture I love you too And want to be the part of your company To learn my freedom of life with you and your employees😂😍
I’ve been watching videos all night I bought my first airplane ticket with frontier cause it was super cheap but I’m looking for another ticket to get back and I’m convinced on choosing SWA I feel like there isn’t nearly as much bad videos as other airlines have gotten shamed about Excited to fly with them soon
Herb was the best. The Leadership now of Southwest Airlines has hit ROCK BOTTOM. Terrible, Evil, and Rotten to the core leadership . Still some good leaders left but most of them are hightailing it out of there by taking early retirement.
20yr employee here. Southwest is no longer a fun company to work for. Hasn't been since Gary Kelly took over. There was a time we were allowed to have fun at work but now it's frowned upon. However when I first started, I've never worked with so many pretentious asshole hypocrites in my life. Out of 20yrs I can count on one hand how many good years I've had at Southwest.

Yeah Dr. Kevin Zadai a retired flight attendant and now Captain speaks a lot about this.

Meeting him change your life. He was a líder and his legacy will stay with us until we also fly west to meet him again.
warrior's spirit, servant's heart, and fun loving attitude.

We still miss you Herb. Need you now more than ever...
Wow. this is awesome. Today is Sunday Aug 19, 2018 and there are ZERO dislikes on this vid. The vid was posted in 2016! Go Southwest!

What an inspiring man, and his laugh is priceless....
He was one of the best and SWA is still the best.
Short clip with wise bits of advice from Mr Kelleher himself.

Do you know where the full speech is?
You've got to love him---he's most definitely, his own man...
Dueteronomy does need a refresh though.

Excited to fly with them soon
What a great man
A far cry from today!
I wish anyone in my office had the chutzpah to live any one of these ideas on the job. #timetolook

...and a good chunk of that culture just walked out the door.
He seems to be liked.
RIP
Pay your flight attendants at training and boarding if you care so much
he's literally dead
I hope they paid back the Baltimore employee for renting five buses? and not just gave award.
A bus company is not renting five charter buses to a probationary employee off the street. They would have known Southwest was backing her.
Herb Kelleher hombre.
he doesn't look saintly. maybe he didn't know about the breakroom
He built it by using PSA 's playbook.
There is no culture anymore after Airtrash tookover the company will be done by 2030😢
Too bad the culture he built has been destroyed….
Boycott southwest
ok
