}}Edward H. Bastian (born June 1957) is an American business executive. He has been the chief executive officer of Delta Air Lines since May 2, 2016.[1]

Early life and education

Bastian grew up in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., the oldest of nine children. His father was a dentist; his mother, a dental assistant. The Bastians operated their dental practice from within the family home.[2]

In 1979, Bastian received a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting from St. Bonaventure University in Cattaraugus County, New York.[3] He is a Certified Public Accountant.[4]

Career

Bastian began his career as an auditor in New York at Price Waterhouse, now PricewaterhouseCoopers. During a 1981 annual review, he uncovered a $50 million fraud scheme involving ad powerhouse J. Walter Thompson. This prompted a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission investigation, leaving many Price Waterhouse executives with marred careers. A few years later, he was named partner at age 31.[2]

After Price Waterhouse, he served as Vice President at PepsiCo, where he managed international finances for its Frito-Lay snack division until 1998, when he joined Delta Air Lines as Vice President - Finance and Controller. In 2000, he was promoted to Senior Vice President – Finance and Controller.

Bastian left Delta in 2005 to become Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Acuity Brands. Six months later, at the request of then-Delta CEO Gerald Grinstein, he returned to the airline to serve as Chief Financial Officer.[5] In 2007, he was appointed to President, a position he held until assuming the role of CEO in May 2016.[6] His transition to CEO was the first time Delta had chosen a chief executive officer from within the company since 1987.[7]

Personal life

Bastian is a twice-divorced[8] father of four children.[9] He splits his time between Atlanta, where Delta Air Lines is headquartered, and Florida.[10]

Awards and recognition

  • In 2021, Bastian will assume the role of Chairman for the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.[11]
  • In 2018, Fortune named Bastian to its annual World's 50 Greatest Leaders list.[12]
  • On February 17, 2018, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal and the Georgia Historical Society inducted Bastian to the Georgia Trustees, the highest honor an individual can receive from the state of Georgia.[13]
  • In 2017, Bastian was recognized by Glassdoor as a Top CEO, based on employee reviews.[14]
  • In 2017, Bastian was honored by the Atlanta Business Chronicle as one of Atlanta's Most Admired CEOs.[15]
