The new GE : how Jack Welch revived an American institution by
Robert Slater(
Book
)
5 editions published between 1993 and 1994 in English and Spanish and held by 577 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In the early 1990s Forbes magazine called General Electric "the most powerful enterprise in American business". Yet only a decade earlier this world-famous corporation, provider of light bulbs and aircraft engines, locomotives and medical imaging equipment, was heading for a crisis that few acknowledged. CEO Jack Welch - tough-minded, iconoclastic, controversial, courageous, despised - alone understood that, for GE to weather the stormy ocean of economic and competitive challenges, a revolution was needed within the company. The New GE tells the story of that revolution, one of the most sweeping and significant exercises of business leadership in the '80s and '90s. In carrying out that revolution, Jack Welch took GE from sales of $25 billion in 1980 to $60.2 billion in 1991 and made it one of the most profitable companies in America. He did so by pioneering the now widely used technique of restructuring, which focused on the buying and selling of businesses, the "delayering" of unwanted middle-management tiers, and the slicing away of thousands of employees. Through rare and exclusive interviews with Jack Welch and dozens of GE insiders, internationally renowned Time magazine reporter Robert Slater gives you the first inside look into General Electric - and the bold leader responsible for GE's magic. The New GE gives you the inside information you need to understand how this powerhouse company operates. You'll discover: the first major profile of the man called by the media "Neutron Jack" and "The Toughest Boss in America", but hailed by his peers as the best CEO in America; a management blueprint that shows how to cope with the increasingly hostile global marketplace; a thorough lookat General Electric, from factory-floor workers to corporate executives, so you can understand and apply Welch's strategies to make your company a more intense competitor

Suzy Welch(

3 editions published in 2010 in English and held by 66 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
We all want to lead a life of our own choosing. But in today's accelerated world of competing priorities, confounding options, and information overload, we can find ourselves steered by impulse, stress, or expedience. Are our decisions the right ones? Or are we being governed, time and again, and against our best intentions, by the demands of the moment? With 10-10-10, Welch proposes a transformative solution to this pressure, helping us tease apart our deepest goals and values, candidly face our fears and dreams, and rid ourselves of frustration and regret. 10-10-10 has shown its effectiveness in decisions large and small, routine and radical, getting us out of neutral at home, in love, and at work. Across the board, this immensely useful and revelatory idea provides us with the tools to regain control of our choices -- and ultimately reclaim our lives. -- Back cover

Winning : the ultimate business how-to book by
Jack Welch(
Book
)
5 editions published between 2005 and 2014 in English and held by 46 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Jack Welch knows how to win. During his forty-year career at General Electric, he led the company to year-after-year success around the globe, in multiple markets, against brutal competition. His honest, be-the-best style of management became the gold standard in business, with his relentless focus on people, teamwork, and profits. Since Welch retired in 2001 as chairman and chief executive officer of GE, he has traveled the world, speaking to more than 250,000 people and answering their questions on dozens of wide-ranging topics. Inspired by his audiences and their hunger for straightforward guidance, Welch has written both a philosophical and pragmatic book, which is destined to become the bible of business for generations to come. It clearly lays out the answers to the most difficult questions people face both on and off the job. Welch's objective is to speak to people at every level of an organization, in companies large and small. His audience is everyone from line workers to MBAs, from project managers to senior executives. His goal is to help everyone who has a passion for success. Welch begins Winning with an introductory section called "Underneath It All," which describes his business philosophy. He explores the importance of values, candor, differentiation, and voice and dignity for all. The core of Winning is devoted to the real "stuff" of work. This main part of the book is split into three sections. The first looks inside the company, from leadership to picking winners to making change happen. The second section looks outside, at the competition, with chapters on strategy, mergers, and Six Sigma, to name just three. The next section of the book is about managing your career'from finding the right job to achieving work-life balance. Welch's optimistic, no excuses, get-it-done mind-set is riveting. Packed with personal anecdotes and written in Jack's distinctive no b.s. voice, Winning offers deep insights, original thinking, and solutions to nuts-and-bolts problems that will change the way people think about work
