The Greater Boston Chamber has once again partnered with Metro Boston on a featured news item.  From time to time, the Metro will offer readers a snapshot of select Chamber speakers and their comments. Last week, Senator Kerry's address to the Government Affairs Forum was featured, and today's edition of the Metro highlighted yesterday's special briefing with Southwest Airlines CEO Gary Kelly.

Southwest’s philosophy:

“You can save people money and make money at the same time.”

On Southwest’s secrets of success:

“We hire great people and treat them like family.  We try our best to care for customers like they’re guests in our home.  We keep our fares low and our operating costs lower and we do that by being safe, efficient and operationally excellent.”
