Jack Welch Quote

In order to lead a country or a company, you've got to get everybody on the same page and you've got to be able to have a vision of where you're going. America can't have a vision of health care for everybody, green economy, regulations - can't have a bunch of piece-meal activities. It's got to have a vision.

About Jack Welch

John Francis Welch Jr. (November 19, 1935 – March 1, 2020) was an American business executive. He was Chairman and CEO of General Electric (GE) between 1981 and 2001.
His long career at General Electric (GE) has left a polarizing legacy. His decisions to adapt GE to a financial company have been poor for investors; Critics argue that his cut-throat work culture is responsible for the modern American capitalist philosophy of constant turnover and has decreased job stability in the United States since the 1980s. This culture has been adopted at many companies, such as Amazon and Uline.
When Welch retired from GE, he received a severance payment of $417 million, the largest such payment in business history up to that point.
In 2006, Welch's net worth was estimated at $720 million.
