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.

Jack Welch
In the end, your integrity is all you've got.
Jack Welch
Hierarchy is an organization with its face toward the CEO and its ass toward the customer.
Jack Welch
