Attitude, Herb Kelleher


We are looking for people who have to excel to satisfy themselves and who work well in a collegial environment. We don’t care that much about education and expertise, because we can train people to do whatever they have to do. We hire attitudes.

- Herb Kelleher (1931- )


More and more companies are putting a greater emphasis on attitude rather than skill. It is much harder to try and reform someone’s mentality than it is to teach a skill. However, it is undeniable that the most talented people are those who possess an excellent character, attitude as well as the necessary skills.
