About Ryan Ragnell

I believe the best results come when empowered teams and uncompromising engineering standards work together. I’m intentional about setting teams up for success—removing obstacles, encouraging smarter ways of working, and ensuring we never trade long-term quality for short-term gains. I’m driven by a vision of what’s possible and enjoy helping others see and reach that future. At Southwest Airlines, my goal is to help our technology organization deliver industry-leading solutions while being a place where technologists can do the best work of their careers.Top 10 Strengths as identified by Gallup\'s Clifton StrengthsFinder:• Maximizer• Futuristic• Intellection • Competition• Focus• Achiever• Analytical• Strategic • Learner• Relator
