A Conversation with Oscar Munoz
Oscar Munoz became captain of a United Airlines in 2015 that was, in fact, disunited, dead-last behind its competitors and at risk of permanently losing the trust of both employees and customers. Five years later, United was soaring; its stock up 54%, it led the industry toward a sustainable aviation future and – most importantly- the airline had rallied its employees under the banner of “A New Spirit at United.” Born in Mexico to humble circumstances and the first Latino to lead a major airline, Oscar takes audiences behind the scenes to show how putting employees first serves the best interests of customers, shareholders, and the future of the modern corporation.
