"No other management book will ever be needed." -Warren E Buffett

Jack Welch knows how to win. During his forty-years career at General Electric, he led the company to year-after-year success around the globe, in multiple markets, against brutal competition. His honest, be-the-best style of management became the gold standard in business, with his relentless focus on people, teamwork, and profits. Since Welch retired in 2001 as chairman and chief executive officer of GE, he has traveled the world, speaking to more than 250,000 people and answering their questions on dozens of wide ranging topics. Inspired by his audiences and their hunger for guidance, Welch has written both a philosophical and pragmatic book that is destined to become the bible for business for generations to come. It clearly lays out the answers to the most difficult and important questions people face both on and off the job. He speaks to people at every level of an organisation, in companies large and small, from line workers to college students and MBAs, from project managers to senior executives. Welch's optimistic , no excuses, get-it done mind-set is riveting. Packed with personal anecdotes and written in Jack's distinctive no b.s. voice, Winning is a great read and a great business book. Jack Welch began his career with the General Electric Company in 1960, and 1981 became the company's eighth chairman and CEO. During his tenure, GE's market capitalization increased by $400 billion, making it the world's most valueable corporation. He is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Jack Straight from the Gut. His wife, Suzy Welch, is the former editor of the Harvard Business Review.
