  5. LUVLines Another way Southwest disseminates information throughout their company is through its corporate newsletter “LUVLines.” Because a company newsletter alone cant create a learning environment, Southwest created LUVLines as a powerful and effective way for creating knowledge throughout the company In addition to featured topics, LUVLines includes several sections throughout the newsletter such as “The Learning Edge,” “Scenarios,” “Industry News,” and “Milestones.”

  6. What Are These Sections? • “The Learning Edge” • The Learning Edge is a segment that appears frequently in the newsletter written by the people department and provides employees with new ideas and insights that will help them do their jobs better. • “Scenarios” • This part of the newsletter presents “real life” Southwest stories from which employees can learn. Generally these “scenarios” come in the form of short case studies. • “Milestones” • LUVLines highlights the previous years milestones or goals the company has achieved.

  7. We don’t fly around tough times, How about you? Southwest posed this question in one of their new commercials. The new commercials are made to tell people to get over the recession and to not stop flying because of it. The tagline “Grab your bag. Get on.” is also featured in the commercial. The new campaign is aimed at a less humorous commercial without any real punch lines, and are opting for a more sober way of saying to get over the last year and move on.
