内容简介
They called him Neutron Jack. They called him the world's toughest boss. And then Fortune called him "The Manager of the Century." In his twenty-year career at the helm of General Electric, Jack Welch defied conventional wisdom and turned an aging behemoth of a corporation into a lean, mean engine of growth and corporate innovation. In this remarkable autobiography--now updated with a special new afterword by the author--Jack Welch takes us on the rough-and-tumble ride that has been his remarkable life. From his working-class childhood to his early days in G.E. Plastics to his life at the top of the world's most successful company, JACK is ultimately a story about people--from a man who based his career on demanding only the best from others and from himself. ... 作者简介： "JACK is about something so rarely encountered in American life today. That something is called getting it right The point of this book is to help us understand how Jack Welch got it done."--Michael M. Thomas, Financial Observer
