Jack Welch
No one is doing something in your business - getting a sale, having a key customer, working on an R&D project - doing anything that's more important than something you say is going to change the company.
Jack Welch
With leadership the question at the beginning of the day is, 'how far can we take this...how big can we grow it...and how fast can we get there?'
Jack Welch
If work is just going in every day and getting a check, it's an ugly life. When you can make work a meaningful purpose, you've hit the jackpot for people.
Jack Welch
Never miss out on an opportunity like a good recession.
Jack Welch
Protecting underperformers always backfires.
Jack Welch
Ninety-nine point nine percent of all employees are in the pile because they don't think.
Jack Welch
Stretch targets energize. We have found that by reaching for what appears to be the impossible, we often actually do the impossible and even when we don't quite make it, we inevitably wind up doing much better than we would have done.
Jack Welch
