F This is a story about Welch, who, in his 17-year tenure as CEO of General Electric, has developed the firm into Fortune's 1997 choice as the most admired company in America. Also in 1997, GE led Business Week's list of all companies worldwide in market value for the second consecutive year and achieved near top ranking of the most profitable companies in the U.S. The book gives an overview of Welch's philosophy on how to manage and how not to manage and covers topics such as building a market-leading company, forging the boundaryless organization, harnessing people for competitive advantage, and pushing service and globalization for double-digit growth. This is the author's third book on Welch, and Slater enjoys complete cooperation from the subject and his company, which reaps highly effective public relations from this glowing report, although Slater contends that no approval of the manuscript was given by anyone at GE. Much can be learned from Welch's management philosophy, which has led GE to notable success in a highly competitive marketplace. Mary Whaley Condition is Brand New. Shipped with USPS Media Mail.
