Leadership Tips From Jack Welch






I don't think I've seen a better list of tips anywhere than this list of 25 tips from Jack Welch.

  • Eliminate bureaucracy
  • Cut waste relentlessly
  • Operations should be fast and simple
  • Value each other's time
  • Invest in infrastructure
  • We should know our business best. We don't need consultants to tell us what to do.
