    <![CDATA[WINNING is destined to become the bible of business for generations to come. It clearly and succinctly lays out the answers to the most difficult, important questions people face both on and off the job. Welch's objective is to speak to people at every level of the organization, in companies large and small. His audience is everyone from line workers to college students and MBAs, from project managers to senior executives. He describes his core business principles and devotes most of WINNING to the real &quot;stuff&quot; of work. Welch's optimistic, no excuses, get-it-done mind set is riveting. His goal is to help anyone and everyone who has a passion for success.]]>

    <![CDATA[It's hard to think of a CEO that commands as much respect as Jack Welch. Under his leadership, General Electric reinvented itself several times over by integrating new and innovative practices into its many lines of business. In <em>Jack: Straight from the Gut</em>, Welch, with the help of <em>Business Week</em> journalist John Byrne, recounts his career and the style of management that helped to make GE one of the most successful companies of the last century. Beginning with Welch's childhood in Salem, Massachusetts, the book quickly progresses from his first job in GE's plastics division to his ambitious rise up the GE corporate ladder, which culminated in 1981. What comes across most in this autobiography is Welch's passion for business as well as his remarkable directness and intolerance of what he calls &quot;superficial congeniality&quot;--a dislike that would help earn him the nickname &quot;Neutron Jack.&quot; In spite of its 496 pages, <em>Jack: Straight from the Gut</em> is a quick read that any student or manager would do well to consider. Highly recommended. --<em>Harry C. Edwards</em>]]>

    <![CDATA[The world tries to keep up when JACK WELCH SPEAKS:<br/>   &quot;Jack Welch has long been one of my heroes. When you read this book you will understand why.&quot; -Warren Buffett Chairman, Berkshire Hathaway.<br/>   &quot;Jack Welch is a management genius who attacks life as he does business-with unconventional flair, a restless intellect, and no tolerance for phonies. And I'd say that even if he weren't my boss!&quot; -Tom Brokaw Anchor and Managing Editor, NBC<br/>   &quot;Jack Welch describes himself as 'just a man in a room.' Janet Lowe takes us into this room by letting the man speak for himself. Through his own words, it becomes clear why he is listened to and emulated all over the world. Big man, big room.&quot; -Sam Nunn Former U.S. Senator; Partner, King and Spalding.<br/>   &quot;All too often, the journalistic adulation heaped upon business leaders is misplaced or vastly overstated. In the case of Welch, he's even better than his press.&quot; -Larry Bossidy Chairman and CEO, Allied Signal Inc.<br/>   &quot;Jack Welch Speaks shows business at its most fascinating. It gives the reader a valuable insight into the mind and personal philosophy of one of America's keenest, most effective business leaders.&quot; -Ely Callaway Founder and Chairman, Callaway Golf.<br/>   &quot;The gold standard against which other CEOs are measured.&quot; -BusinessWeek.<br/>   &quot;The most acclaimed SOB of the last decade is the most acclaimed CEO of this one.&quot; -Industry Week.<br/>   He is one of the most praised, perhaps the most feared, and certainly one of the most confounding and controversial bosses in America-a complex, intensely private man, revered as the manager's manager. As Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of General Electric, Jack Welch has been at the forefront of the reconstruction of American industry. From the moment he assumed his position 16 years ago, Welch sought dramatic and swift change. He quickly realized the demands of the new, global, high-tech environment, and met the challenge with decisive action and, in the opinion of many, ruthless determination. He broadened corporate America's vocabulary with words that still strike terror in the hearts of many an employee: restructuring, downsizing, rightsizing. In the process, Jack Welch turned an aging, albeit highly respected and historic, business icon into what is considered by many today to be the best managed company in the world and, above all, one of the most profitable.<br/>   Now, Janet Lowe, author of the bestselling Warren Buffett Speaks, presents in Welch's own words the insights, vision, passions, and persuasions of a legendary leader. Here's just a sample of what you'll find inside:<br/>   * &quot;We're going to demand from you earnings growth every year. . . . Those are the rules of the road. . . . You take charge of your destiny. If you don't, we will.&quot;<br/>   * &quot;As I went to bigger pieces of GE, I found bigger bureaucracies, layers and all that stuff and it wasn't friendly. Business was very serious-turf-boxes. Business isn't that. Business is ideas and fun and excitement and celebrations, all those things.&quot;<br/>   * &quot;When you're running an institution, you're always scared at first. You're afraid you might break it.&quot;<br/>   * &quot;If someone tells me 'I'm working 90 hours a week,' I say, 'You're doing something terribly wrong.' I go skiing on the weekend, I go out with my buddies on Friday and party. You've got to do the same or you've got a bad deal.&quot;<br/>   * &quot;Speed is everything. It is the indispensable ingredient in competitiveness. Speed keeps business and people young. It's addictive, and it's a profoundly American taste we need to cultivate.&quot;]]>

    <![CDATA[ Wenn jemand in den USA 40 Jahre lang bei einem Megakonzern und davon zwei Jahrzehnte als Firmenboss tätig war, ist er schon zu Lebzeiten eine Legende. Kein Zweifel: Um Jack Welch ranken sich unzählige Stories, Intrigen und Vorurteile. Was hat man ihm nicht alles angedichtet: Ein harter Hund soll er gewesen sein, der sein Unternehmen mit Zuckerbrot und Peitsche geführt hat. Im gleichen Atemzug aber auch ein beispielhafter Coach, der sich für die Belange seiner Mitarbeiter förmlich zerrissen hat.<p>  Jetzt packt der beste Manager der Welt aus. Er erzählt aus seinem Leben -- direkt, ungeschminkt und fast kumpelhaft distanzlos. Herausgekommen ist eine weitschweifende, mitunter sehr unterhaltsame Mischung aus privaten Anekdoten, lebendigen Erzählungen aus der Chefetage eines Weltkonzerns sowie grundlegenden Managementweisheiten. Das Buch ist angelegt wie ein Hollywoodfilm. Die frühen Jahre, der unaufhaltsame Aufstieg, die Höhen und Tiefen an den Hebeln der Macht und der Einstieg in die neue Ära globalen Wirtschaftens. Fast ist man geneigt zu vermuten, das Drehbuch für einen abendfüllenden Spielfilm sei schon mitgeschrieben worden.<p>  Die Lektüre des Buches ist eigentlich wie eine Achterbahnfahrt. Einmal saust man in die Abgründe bizarrer Klischees und Selbstbeweihräucherung, ein andermal wird man hochgezogen in wunderbare kleine Episoden und hemdsärmelige Situationsanalyse. Es gibt Passagen, da wendet man sich mit Grausen, aber auch Erzählungen, in die man förmlich hineingesaugt wird. Beispiele gibt es auf beiden Seiten zuhauf. Die irische Übermutter, die &quot;einen falschen Fuffziger auf eine Meile Entfernung riechen konnte&quot;, und die ihm alle Grundsätze des Managements beibrachte: &quot;Stelle Dich dem Wettbewerb. Stelle dich der Wirklichkeit. Motiviere die Menschen durch Zuckerbrot und Peitsche. Stecke dir anspruchsvolle Ziele. Lasse die Leute nie aus den Augen, damit sie ihre Aufgaben auch tatsächlich erfüllen.&quot; Andererseits aber etwa auch die Details und Hintergründe des Honeymoon-Deals, der größten Industriefusion aller Zeiten -- authentisch und meisterhaft erzählt, als würde der alte Jack vor dem prasselnden Kamin aus dem Nähkästchen plaudern.<p>  443 Seiten lang durchschreiten wir an der Hand eines Industriefürsten das amerikanische Jahrhundert und erleben ein kleines Stück amerikanischer Industriegeschichte hautnah mit. Nicht mehr und nicht weniger. Denn so einzigartig ist Jack Welch schon deshalb nicht, weil die Arbeitswelt von morgen keine Führungskraft mehr fördern würde, die sich über 40 Jahre lang bei ein und demselben Arbeitgeber verdingt hat. <em>--Peter Felixberger</em></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Jack Welch sabe como vencer. Nos seus 40 anos de carreira na General Electric liderou este Gupo global com sucesso, ano após ano, em múltiplos mercados e enfrentando uma forte concorrência. O seu estilo honesto de gestão, que defende o valor de &quot;ser o melhor&quot;, revelou-se padrão de ouro no mundo dos negócios.<br/><br/>Desde que Welch se aposentou das suas funções de Presidente do Conselho de Administração e de Presidente Executivo da GE, em 2001, tem viajado por todo o mundo e participado em conferências como orador, onde é questionado sobre uma variedade de tópicos.<br/><br/>Inspirado pela vontade destas audiências, de quase 250 mil pessoas, em ouvir os seus conselhos, decidiu escrever sobre o mundo dos negócios para as gerações vindouras. Este texto dá respostas claras às questões mais difíceis que enfrentamos, quer no trabalho quer na vida pessoal.<br/><br/>O objectivo de Welch é falar aos diferentes níveis da organização, para empresas grandes ou pequenas, colaboradores da linha da frente, detentores de MBA, gestores de projecto e executivos seniores, entre outros profissionais. Com este livro pretende ajudar todos os que têm uma paixão pelo sucesso.<br/><br/>Welch inicia <em>Vencer<em> com uma secção introdutória denominada &quot;O que está por detrás&quot;, onde descreve a sua filosofia de negócio. Nesta parte do livro desenvolve a importância dos valores, da franqueza, da diferenciação e da voz e dignidade para todos.<br/><br/>A parte central de <em>Vencer</em> dedica-se ao que é importante no mundo do trabalho e está dividida em três partes. A primeira aborda o interior da empresa, desde a liderança até ao recrutamento de vencedores. A segunda descreve o exterior e a concorrência. A parte seguinte deste lvro é sobre a gestão da carreira: desde encontrar o emprego certo até conseguir um equilívrio saudável entre a vida pessoal e o trabalho.<br/><br/>Os seus pontos de vista optimistas, onde &quot;não existem desculpas&quot; porque &quot;as coisas têm de ser feitas&quot;, são contagiantes. Preenchido com relatos de experiências pessoais e escrito no seu estilo distinto, <em>Vencer</em> é um livro que transmite novos conhecimentos, pernsamentos originais e soluções para algumas questões práticas e, por isso, mudará a forma como encara a sua vida.</em></em>]]>

    <![CDATA[Fidèle à sa réputation de franc-parler, le <em>self-made man</em> Jack  Welch, qui a présidé pendant vingt ans General Electric, livre le condensé de  son expérience hors norme, et bien plus encore. Cet ingénieur chimiste analyse  son ascension, puis sa présidence, d'après les principales leçons qu'il en a  tirées… quitte à faire un crochet par ses parties de golf marquantes. Sans  fausse modestie, il expose les visions stratégiques ayant conduit le remodelage  de cette entreprise centenaire à coups d'acquisitions et de révolutions radicales  (internationalisation, services, qualité et <em>e-business</em>). Il parle aussi des  licenciements massifs, des cessions, des erreurs et des aléas, non pour s'exonérer  de sa responsabilité mais pour en expliquer les enjeux et les résultats. Les  hommes habitent cet ouvrage et ce sont surtout leurs valeurs qui transparaissent  le mieux à travers les amitiés et relations décrites, faisant ainsi écho aux  témoignages de Peter Drucker (<em>Témoin du vingtième  siècle</em>), cité de nombreuses fois, ou encore de Mark McCormack  (<em>La réussite ne tient pas à  un mail</em>).<p> Un regret M. Welch ? <em>&quot;J'aurais dû faire plus et  plus vite.&quot;</em> (p. 198) <em>--Cyril Demaria</em> </p>]]>
