Jack Welch
When you were made a leader you weren't given a crown, you were given the responsibility to bring out the best in others.
Jack Welch
Strategy is not a lengthy action plan. It is the evolution of a central idea through continually changing circumstances.
Jack Welch
We know where most of the creativity, the innovation, the stuff that drives productivity lies - in the minds of those closest to the work.
Jack Welch
My main job was developing talent. I was a gardener providing water and other nourishment to our top 750 people. Of course, I had to pull out some weeds, too.
Jack Welch
