That moment you realize that being #1 for the @Delta Comfort Plus upgrade for 24 hours prior to takeoff can be CIRCUMVENTED by the gate agent. Got it. Thank you, @Delta. Love, Your loyal 30 year Customer.

@united Can you please share an update for the forgotten FAR passengers of flight UA 5448 diverted from ORD - now stuck since this morning in MSN - Madison. We have had ZERO updates throughout the day. The opposite of love is not hate - the opposite of love is indifference.

Nothing says “prestige consulting” like reclining your First Class seat into someone’s laptop, ignoring the FA’s landing instruction, and letting your #BCG backpack handle the brand strategy. Impeccable manners deck. No notes. #Delta Flight DL2982

You built this. Decisions slow without you. Alignment breaks. Results vary. Not people. Not execution. Structure. If it doesn’t change, nothing will. Read this → [therainmakergroupinc.com/blo…]

@Delta DL 2129 on 1/22 MSP to BIS left over ten passengers behind after closing the gate and then sat at the gate for at least ten minutes. Is that the Delta Airlines I know and love? In this world of incivility, kindness goes further than ever.

Just wanted to thank @westjet for screwing up my @Delta flights yesterday and today. Never again. How on earth @Delta sees fit to have @westjet carry their passengers is way beyond my capacity to understand. #WestJetsucks

@Delta Thank you for the sprint exercise from MSP C23 to F11 this evening. It’s the little things that matter in CX.

You Cannot Scale What You Tolerate - Culture is defined by what leaders allow. Tolerance of mediocrity institutionalizes dysfunction. You cannot scale what you refuse to enforce. hubs.ly/Q03spfJM0

Tell the truth. Hear the truth. Act on the truth. Even when it hurts. Especially when it hurts. Brutal facts. Radical candor. Ideological conflict. Truth is the foundation of scalable leadership. #Leadership #RadicalCandor #TruthCulture #ScalingUp #E... hubs.ly/Q03rPFcL0
