Public hangings are teaching moments. Every company has to do it. A teaching moment is worth a thousand CEO speeches. CEOs can talk and blab each day about culture, but the employees all know who the jerks are. They could name the jerks for you. It's just cultural. People just don't want to do it.
Jack Welch
Number one, cash is king... number two, communicate... number three, buy or bury the competition.
Jack Welch

Jack Welch
Managers often hold on to resisters because of a specific skill set or because they've been around for a long time. Don't.
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
If we wait for the perfect answer, the world will pass us by
Jack Welch
Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.
Jack Welch
Excellence and competitiveness aren't incompatible with honesty and integrity.
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
The main social responsibility for a company is to win.
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
