Synopsis

Jack and Suzy Welch interpret, extend and illustrate the ideas outlined in their best-selling book WINNING by answering directly the questions asked of them by the public in their international column The Welch Way.

Jack Welch’s greatest asset is his currency with business people everywhere. He has the singular knack for talking straight and remaining positive and upbeat no matter how difficult the circumstances seem. Few of us will ever get the chance to see Jack answer questions in person. But Winning: The Answers offers the next best thing, the opportunity to take the lessons of Jack’s bible of business success one step further.

Here in Winning: The Answers, Jack and Suzy Welch draw from the thousands of reader responses they get from the book and their BusinessWeek column, The Welch Way. They comment on the same range of issues from dealing with office politics to understanding the importance of Wal-Mart in the world economy. No business leader in the world today has the range or rapport of Jack Welch.

Winning: The Answers is the ideal companion to Winning and will introduce new readers to the book as well as delighting Jack’s fans with more hard-won wisdom.
