Neeleman Solution

JetBlue founder David Neeleman was once asked what one thing might save the rest of American business. His reply? "Furry slippers. When I talk with customers, they ask me, 'How do you find such nice people to take reservations?' I tell them, 'Furry slippers. They love their jobs because they're in their furry slippers, working from home.'"

["When I left Southwest Airlines, there was a guy there who said I was a revolutionary in a company that didn't need a revolution," Neeleman once remarked. "But I think every company needs a revolution, all the time."]


Neeleman, David (1959-    ) American airline executive, founder of JetBlue
