More quotes by Jack Welch
I’ve learned in a hundred ways that I rarely regretted acting but often regretted NOT acting fast enough.
Jack Welch
Again, your challenge is not just to improve. It is to break the service paradigm in your industry or market so that customers aren't just satisfied, they're so shocked that they tell strangers on the street how good you are.
Jack Welch
There's no such thing as work-life balance. There are work-life choices, and you make them, and they have consequences.
Jack Welch
In order to lead a country or a company, you've got to get everybody on the same page and you've got to be able to have a vision of where you're going. America can't have a vision of health care for everybody, green economy, regulations - can't have a bunch of piece - meal activities. It's got to have a vision.
Jack Welch
If you pick the right people and give them the opportunity to spread their wings and put compensation as a carrier behind it you almost don't have to manage them.
Jack Welch

As a leader, you have no right to have any employee wonder how they fit in and where they are going.
Jack Welch
People aren't the same. Business is, in my opinion, all about the team that fields the best players. It's not about an idea. An idea goes away. Somebody catches up with it. It's not about a widget.
Jack Welch
We've only been wealthy in this country for 70 years. Who said we ought to have all this? Is it ordained?
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
In the end, your integrity is all you've got.
Jack Welch
Genuine leadership comes from the quality of your vision and your ability to spark others to extraordinary performance.
Jack Welch
Some people have better ideas than others some are smarter or more experienced or more creative. But everyone should be heard and respected.
Jack Welch
The thing it taught me was that winning's a helluva lot more fun than losing. It also taught me that the team with the best players that worked together the best wins.
Jack Welch
Protecting underperformers always backfires.
Jack Welch
Globalization has changed us into a company that searches the world, not just to sell or to source, but to find intellectual capital - the world's best talents and greatest ideas.
Jack Welch
The Internet is the Viagra of big business.
Jack Welch
Business is a game, and as with all games, the team that puts the best people on the field and gets them playing together wins. It's that simple.
Jack Welch
The 3Ss of Winning in business are speed, simplicity, and self-confidence.
