Jack Welch

GE

Running the huge GE corporation, Jack Welch didn't seem like a traditional manager. He seemed more like a superleader: "I have no idea how to produce a good TV program and just as little about how to build an engine...My job is to chose the best people and to provide them with dollars. That's how the game is played."

Jack Welch abandoned the old practice of setting goals for GE's business leaders. Welch required them to stretch, be energized, energize others, and live speed.

Welch said, "Now, we don't reward them according to whether or not they reach their objectives. They're all going to get paid on their improvement, and they know that. In bureaucratic companies, they waste a lot of time on making budgets. They waste energy. The world is changing quickly. We can't afford to waste time in bureaucracy. GE is an informal company. We trust each other."
