HOT SEAT : WHAT I LEARNED LEADING A GREAT AMERICAN COMPANY
A fascinating and candid memoir about successful leadership from the former CEO of General Electric, named one of the ;Worlds Best CEOs three times by Barrons, and the hard-won lessons he learned from his experience leading GE immediately after 9/11, through the devastating 200809 financial crisis, and into an increasingly globalized world.In September 2001, Jeff Immelt replaced the most famous CEO in history, Jack Welch, at the helm of General Electric.
