Jack Welch
Straight From the Gut

Book review/summary Reviewed by: Dave Wiseman, Team-wise. ISBN - 0747249792 Rating - 4*

Jack Welch - Straight From The Gut, is a book about about Jack Welch's time in General Electric.

He describes his time with General Electric from his first days right through to his retirement from the company.

For anyone up and coming in business this book is a great source of inspiration. If I could bring half of the enthusiasm and focus to my work that Jack takes to his I would feel I was still making a great contribution.

It is an autobiography but within it are clear concepts for developing people, business and success. Management, leadership styles and six sigma are just some of the topics that Jack covers in his recounting of his time at General Electric.
