Lisa Borromeo, the Director of Brand Advertising and Market Planning at Jet Blue, says that "Our business is such a commoditized business that the only way to really differentiate us from our competitors is our people." Jet Blue manages their human capital by creating a culture in which employees can thrive and customers will be happy. They hire diverse employees to serve their diverse customers. They allow their employees to be individuals and to use their specific strengths to perform their jobs at an optimal level instead of requiring everyone to act in exactly the same way. Jet Blue helps their employees grow and develop in several ways, including performance management reviews and a mentoring program.
