  22. A Story Captain Eddie Rickenbacker was president of Eastern Airlines, he demonstrated to top management the impact of poor service. Baggage handling had deteriorated badly at Eastern, and nothing he had done had improved it. So Rickenbacker called a meeting of his top managers in a hot Miami hotel with no air conditioning. Prof. Vivek Kumar

  23. Story contd. When the managers checked in, Rickenbacker had the desk clerks tell them their bags would be brought to their rooms. But the bags were locked in a storage area instead. The managers arrived for the next morning’s meeting mostly unshaved and in dirty clothes. Prof. Vivek Kumar

  24. Story contd. The baggage remained “lost” all that day. Finally it was delivered at 3 A.M., with hotel clerks pounding on the executives’ doors. On the second morning, Rickenbacker said, “Now you know how the customer feels when you mishandle his luggage!” (Today’s Leader/Manager) Prof. Vivek Kumar
