Get inside the mind of Jack Welch, GE's bold innovator.

"Jack Welch is a genius at making all who work for him raise the level of their game. We've had some friendly differences but we always find common ground; I think he's the smartest boss I've ever had and he signs my pay checks!"

--Tom Brokaw, Anchor and Managing Editor "NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw."

"If leadership is an art, then surely Welch has proved himself a master painter."

--"BusinessWeek" on Jack Welch.

Jack Welch doesn't believe in sitting still. His innovative, breakthrough leadership strategies as CEO have transformed GE into a highly productive, labor-efficient powerhouse--with a staggering $200 billion-plus market capitalization. Now, at long last, senior managers and other executives can discover how to work the Welch magic on their own companies.

"Act like a leader, not a manager." "Jack Welch and the GE Way" reveals the strategies and secrets that have led to Jack Welch's stunning success. Veteran international business journalist Robert Slater, given unprecedented access to Welch and other prominent GE insiders, has crafted a brilliant portrait of what makes Jack Welch tick. "Use the brains of every worker." Jack Welch is a man with a mission. Even though he has reached the summit of success, Welch continues to shake the cage--and GE continues to be the envy of its global competitors. Read "Jack Welch and the GE Way," and learn for yourself the insights and strategies that Jack Welch used to create the most valuable corporation in history.
 
Annotation:
Under the tenure of Jack Welch, General Electric grew through acquisition to become the world's most valuable corporation. Slater, author of two previous books on the CEO, spells out the strategy Welch employed that brought GE to the top of the business world.
