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 "stuff" of work--how to lead, hire, get
ahead, even write a budget. 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.BusinessWeek

Jack Welch began his career with the General Electric Company in 1960, and in 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 valuable corporation. In 1999, Fortune named him the "manager of the century," and the Financial Times recently named him one of the three most admired business leaders in the world today. Upon retiring from GE in 2001, Mr. Welch published his internationally best-selling autobiography Jack: Straight from the Gut. He now teaches at MIT's Sloan School of Management and speaks to business leaders and students around the world.
