Description: "Jack Welch is the most admired, copied, and studied CEO of the 20th century. His visionary initiatives and concepts - and adaptive management strategies - earned him the title of the most effective CEO in history. This alphabetically arranged, encyclopedic reference, The Jack Welch Lexicon of Leadership, provides an in-depth look at the methods that Welch used to turn GE into the world's most valuable corporation."

"By adding speed, simplifying the complex, and cutting straight to the heart of the matter, Jack Welch was able to find workable solutions for virtually every challenge. The Jack Welch Lexicon of Leadership follows Welch's example. It defines and organizes the terms and programs that Welch used to rewrite the language of leadership, then creates a roadmap you can use to create Welch magic of your own - regardless of your organization's industry or competitive position"--Jacket.
Notes: "Over 250 terms, concepts, strategies and initiatives of the legendary leader"--Jacket.
