How a culture of “WOW” transformed the travel industry
“WOW!” was the word on everyone’s lips as the first guests stepped aboard Icon of the Seas, the largest, most spectacular cruise ship ever created.
Icon was one of many WOWs generated by a standout culture during the tenure of Richard Fain, regularly named one of Barron’s “World’s Best CEOs.” Under Fain’s leadership, Royal Caribbean Group built the world's most innovative ships—large and small—and one of the strongest service cultures in the travel industry.
In Delivering the WOW, Fain shows how a culture united people around a mission, delighted guests, and unlocked extraordinary performance. Drawing on vivid stories from 33 years at the helm, Fain explains how a remarkable culture was forged and strengthened through:
•Alignment: ensuring every employee understands the same clear mission, beyond hierarchy or titles
•Intentionality: never losing sight of the ultimate goal and ensuring that every action, big or small, supports that objective
•Continuous improvement: never being satisfied; always believing that there are ways to improve
•Crisis response: deeply rooted culture as a stabilizing force during black swan events, including the global pandemic
Invaluable principles like these are woven into unforgettable stories which help explain how the company's profitability, guest capacity, and employee base all grew more than thirtyfold. Fain also candidly recounts mistakes he made along the way. He takes listeners inside tough decisions during high-stakes crises—including the COVID shutdown—that helped rally 100,000 employees to beat the odds and unify the company like never before.
Beyond its valuable lessons, the book offers cruise enthusiasts a behind-the-scenes look at the dedicated teamwork that shapes every unforgettable voyage. Delivering the WOW tells the dramatic story of a tenacious culture that surmounted challenges, thrilled customers, and introduced game-changing innovations.
