WINNING is destined to become the bible of business for generations to come. It clearly and succinctly lays out the answers to the most difficult, important questions people face both on and off the job. Welch's objective is to speak to people at every level of the organization, in companies large and small. His audience is everyone from line workers to college students and MBAs, from project managers to senior executives. He describes his core business principles and devotes most of WINNING to the real "stuff" of work. Welch's optimistic, no excuses, get-it-done mind set is riveting. His goal is to help anyone and everyone who has a passion for success.

 I did not like it
This is one of many books giving suggestions on how to run company more efficiently, I did not read anything I have not heard before.
 hard hitting business thought
CANDOR! in my opinion this is the main point of this book. in this pc and hurt-no-feelings country, it would be good to hear truth. both the political and business world, candor would produce better results than always trying to be seen as the nice guy. nice is good, but we all want to finish first.
 Why is Jack's name even on this book?
Geez, for someone whose reputation as a micro-managing pit bull is well-documented in scads of books, articles and interviews, Jack Welch didn't seem to leave much of a mark on this book.
The "voice" on every page is all Suzy's, the writing is weak, and the content is pure consultancy pap -- bland tidbits and platitudes that don't begin to capture the no-B.S. personality of one of the most famous CEOs in history. Did Jack Welch actually have anything to do with this book? There's nothing here to convince me he did.
The somewhat ironic thing is that -- based on all we know about him -- if any employee had presented this manuscript to Welch as their best effort, he would have torn it to shreds for being the work of a low-energy, low-IQ hammerhead (with a few choice profanities thrown in for good measure). End of career.
But in this book, the "new" Jack indulgently gave his third wife free reign as she frittered away on her vanity project, and he allowed his name to be associated with the subpar result. Love is strange.
excellent!
Received my book within one week and it was in perfect condition. I am very happy with my purchase.
Winning-Jack Welch
The overall content was good, but i wish they would have used an actor's voice because the recorded voice was distructing because he sounded like he had a cold.
