Walk The Talk-Jack Welch
Work Out
Travelled
bimonthly to
Crotonville Training
center to impart
lectures and
interact with team.
Nearing Retirement
Jack was the first
one to speed up
and keeping up
the spirit even in
his post operation
years. He kept the
enthusiasm and
raised the bar for
others.
Hiring Stars
Welch’s stress
towards hiring A
stars was his
answer to
dumbness. He
believed “If I am
the smartest
person in the
room, I wont listen
to others at all. ”
Session C
Personally
reviewed the
progress of
company’s top
executives to
nurture and
develop future
leaders.
•Welch never pretended that all his ideas were original but he
was very adept in fine-tuning the ideas of others and then
conveying a very simple message.
• Welch was not afraid to dispense with people, plants or
entire businesses – especially in his earlier years at GE.
• He took a successful company and transformed it into one of
the world’s most admired organizations.
• Famous quote: “I wasn't smarter that anyone else, but I
helped 270,000 people make me look smarter than most.”

GE är det enda bolaget listat i det ursprungliga Dow Jones indexet från 1896 som fortfarande finns kvar idag.
En GE aktie som hade köpts 1892 för $100 skulle idag vara värd över 5 miljoner dollar.
