More quotes by 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
People who are coaches will be the norm. Other people won't get promoted.
Jack Welch
When employees underperform, a leader tells them so.
Jack Welch

Jack Welch
When it's time to let someone go, do it right. No surprises. No humiliation.
Jack Welch
If you managed a baseball team, would you listen more closely to the team accountant or the director of player personnel?
Jack Welch
I believe that in any initiative, you can't have a flavor of the month. When you believe something is profound in a company, you can not be a logical leader. You have to go to the lunatic fringe. There is no way that logic is what you need to change people.
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. It's been there in front of our noses all along while we've been running around chasing robots and reading books on how to become Japanese-or at least manage like them.
Jack Welch
People always overestimate how complex business is. This isn't rocket science. We've chosen one of the world's simplest professions.
Jack Welch
The team with the best players usually does win - this is why you need to invest the majority of your time and energy in developing your people.
Jack Welch
Above all, good leaders are open. They go up, down, and around their organization to reach people. They don't stick to the established channels. They're informal. They're straight with people. They make a religion out of being accessible. They never get bored telling their story.
Jack Welch
If your CFO is more important than your CHRO (Chief Human Resource Officer) you're nuts!
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
The secret of success is changing the way you think.
Jack Welch
We have the brand, and we have the fulfillment capability. Now we had to get the Net, and that's the easiest part of the game.
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
Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.
Jack Welch
I believe social responsibility begins with a strong, competitive company. Only a healthy enterprise can improve and enrich the lives of people and their communities.
Jack Welch
Take time to get to know people. Understand where they are coming from, what is important to them. Make sure they are with you.
Jack Welch
No vision is worth the paper it's printed on unless it is communicated constantly and reinforced with rewards.
Jack Welch
