As the former CEO of the
highly successful Southwest
Airlines, Howard led the
development and
implementation of the
"vision" that has guided
Southwest to revered
heights. Southwest tripled
in size and profitability
during his tenure, and today
is still a corporate model
for organizations that place
their people first.
As Chairman and CEO of the
financially failing Braniff
International, Howard became
the first CEO to take a
major airline through
Chapter 11 successfully. The
reorganization was
accomplished so efficiently
that Harvard University used
it as a model and wrote "The
Ethics of Bankruptcy," a
case study for ethically
leading an organization
through turbulence. He has
an MBA in Marketing and
attended Harvard's Advanced
Management Program. He is a
founding faculty member of
MentorU.com, a distance
learning company of
world-class business experts
and the author of The Winds
of Turbulence.
