Today’s guest is Oscar Munoz, the former CEO and Chairman of United Airlines.

Oscar led United through a massive turnaround. And this conversation is a fascinating, story-filled look at how it happened. 

It’s also a great reminder for every leader: 

You’ve got to do more than just create smart strategies and solve technical problems. 

The real challenge is how you do all that while also reaching the hearts of the people you lead.

That was the driving force of the turnaround at United, and it’s true for whatever challenges you’re facing, too.
