Fred Smith Has Lift-Off: The Beginnings of Federal Express
“By the early '70s when I'd gotten out of the service it was very clear that this new society was coming in earnest,” recalls Smith. “And so, at that point I said, ‘What the hell, let's try to put it together.’” After leaving the U.S. Marine Corps, Smith purchased a controlling interest in Ark Aviation Sales, a company that focused on aircraft maintenance. This was the first step towards realizing his goal of what would soon become Federal Express.

6 Keys to Solving Any Challenge with Out-of-the-Box Thinking
It is at the very moment that you feel hopeless, stuck and frustrated that out-of-the-box thinking can trigger a whole new dimension of reality. You see, the problem is that most of us try to solve problems with the same level of thinking it was created in. We can only access ideas, thoughts and possibilities that we currently live in because, well, quite frankly, that's our current reality!

Are You a Problem Solver or a Problem Blamer?
I fly a decent amount and have had a lot of good and a lot of bad experiences with the airlines. The biggest issue I have with the airlines, especially my carrier of choice, is not that they make mistakes. I don’t expect any business to be perfect. At issue is how they deal with problems. Too often, their first reaction is to put the problem back with me. The protocol seems to be to assume first that the customer is wrong (blame), and take responsibility much later, if ever. How do you react when there is a problem with your product or service?

There was a study conducted by Delta Airlines a few years back and the results were so startling that it became quickly obvious that these results could apply to all types and sizes of businesses and organizations. The study centered on what their customers really wanted from Delta Airlines.
Satisfaction and Success
A recent consumer survey of satisfaction levels with respect to a variety of industries revealed that the airlines score consistently at the lowest levels of customer satisfaction. If you fly regularly, this will not shock you. I realize that with increasing regulations and skyrocketing fuel costs, the airlines are facing unprecedented challenges; however, it is important to note, with the same regulations and fuel prices, that one airline consistently scored good marks in consumer satisfaction.

The new players used e-tickets, did away with allocated seating, bypassed travel agents, flew to new, smaller airports, etc. So, if you want to be innovative, you have to work out how to at least challenge the rules to if they can be effectively broken. How? Read on ... and find out.
