027 Oscar Muñoz| uniting via turnaround

OSCAR’S BIO

Oscar is the former Executive Chairman & CEO of United Airlines Holdings. He led the airline’s stunning turnaround which is remarkable on its own, but what makes his story so singular is that 37 days after taking the helm at the company he suffered a massive heart attack that eventually led to a heart transplant. Perseverance, grit, dedication, motivation, and humanity are some words that describe this leader.

Prior to UAL, Oscar served as President and COO of CSX Corporation, a railroad and intermodal transportation services company. He began his career holding various financial positions at PepsiCo and Coca Cola, followed by being CFO at US West through its merger with Qwest followed by being CFO of AT&T’s consumer services division.

His path in the corporate world is capped by currently serving on the boards of directors of Salesforce, CBRE Group, Inc., Univision Holdings, Inc. Archer Aviation Inc, and Fidelity’s Equity & High Income Fund.

Oscar is the oldest of ten children in a Mexican-American family from Southern California and was the first in his family to graduate from college, earning a BS in business from the University of Southern California and an MBA from Pepperdine University.
