Jack

Straight from the Gut

Jack Welch

"Jack" is a classic business book and New York Times bestseller that tells the story of Jack Welch, the former CEO of General Electric. Dubbed "The Manager of the Century," Welch defied conventional wisdom and transformed the aging behemoth corporation into a lean, mean engine of growth and innovation. This autobiography offers a personal account of Welch's rough-and-tumble journey from his working-class childhood to the top of the business world. It's a story about people, from a man who demanded only the best from others and himself.
