1. Discuss the layers of culture that are evident in this case. Why do you think Southwest has preferred to grow organically over its history?

2. What are the similarities and dissimilarities between the cultures, values, and beliefs of Southwest and AirTran airlines? Where would you expect the differences to be most difficult to manage? Why?
