Insight applicable thru time...
Solid lessons for any leader. Enjoyed the points on quality versus speed, learning, and leading change. Good book - a little long but good.

Great Book
I am not a sigma or anything but this book was recommended to me by someone who I respect and admire. Jack Welch is the real deal and his management strategy can be applied both to your business of your life.

awesomely inspirational
Its a must read. Jack Welch has truly created a boundary less organisation aided by a super efficient team.There are lot of insights into how not to fall into a false sense of security.

Been there done that.
I've heard about this book for years. I knew its reputation and the fact that anyone working in any leadership role is expected to know it by heart. I read it and was left with the impression that this might be valuable to understand where some people are coming from, but more so I was left with the impression that the value is much less in today's business climate than when Jack ran GE. I see too many leaders applying some of Jack's tactics while leaving out others that are really needed to make the applied tactics make sense.

Disappointing
When I read a book I expect to learn something I don't already know or at least revisit something I already know from a new perspective or explain it in a uniquely articulate way. This book fails on all three measures. Walsh shares no secret insights -- he only discusses his introduction of a number of standard business practices to GE. This include 6-Sigma, downsizing, A-B-C rating of managers, etc. -- The usual mix of management science, art and business fad typical in pop management books. And even the discussions of how these management tools were implemented at GE is filled with extrainious details about the meetings at which these policies were introduced and other non-value added story telling. This only leads me to believe that it was added as filler to get the page count up to the size required for a book.For all of Jack Welsh's insistence that his business units be 1st or 2nd in a market it is pure hypocrisy for him to be publishing this book. Your time and money is better spent reading Peter Drucker.
