People Overview
Rooted in our people and culture, the Delta Difference has been our strongest competitive advantage for 100 years. Every day, in everything we do, our more than 100,000 employees live out our core values of Integrity, Care, Resilience and Servant Leadership by delivering welcoming, elevated and caring service. We remain committed to attracting, retaining and developing people who understand and are committed to delivering the high-quality service that Delta has long been known for.
As our colleagues fuel our success, we strive to make meaningful investments in each of them in support of our Virtuous Circle. We work to listen actively, seek input regularly and respond to employee feedback; prioritize employee wellness, including physical, emotional, social and financial health; provide clear career paths; and foster a culture of equity and belonging where everyone, everywhere can thrive.
The Delta "virtuous circle," divided into four segments: "OUR PEOPLE," "OUR CUSTOMERS," "OUR PARTNERS & COMMUNITIES," and "OUR OWNERS." In the center, it reads, "No One Better Connects the World."
