"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got." Henry Ford (1863-1947), American founder of the Ford Motor Company With losses of 730million DM, in 1991, Lufthansa Airlines was on the brink of collapse. Only 8 years later, in 1999, Jurgen Weber, Lufthansa's CEO reported record results in the whole of the airline's 70 year history. In the space of 8 years, the company moved from disaster to a pre-tax profit of 2.5 billion DM - a feat many would have believed unachievable. The Lufthansa experience has become a famous case study conducted by entities such as the London Business School. Summary Lufthansa Airlines made changes instead of just carrying on with ‘the same old practices’.
