Description

An inside look at the genius of GE. Bill Lane was Jack Welch's speechwriter for 20 years. In the first book by a GE insider, Lane shows that Welch's immense success as a leader came from Welch's ability as a master communicator. Welch launched a communications revolution that took GE from a ponderous supertanker of a company to what Welch called a high-speed 'cigarette boat,' capable of radical moves and rapid learning from the best institutions in the world. Jacked Up gives you a front-row seat to Welch's twenty-year campaign to transform GE. Lane's first-hand, fly-on-the-wall account reveals some of Welch's most vivid and exciting moments.
