Welch: An American Icon by Janet Lowe. If Jack Welch isnt a household name, he should be, Lowe says. "Welch is a guy who makes a lot of things happen, all kinds of things that affect the lives of all of us, even when were not aware of it." (USA Today September 10, 2001) "When business writer Lowe (Damn Right, etc.) approached GE Chairman Jack Welch about a book (Jack Welch Speaks, her first book on him), "[h]e said he did not see any purpose in -yet another book." Lowes respectable, ultimately redundant book portrays Welch as a captain of industry who commands the kind of attention that top executives crave and almost never get. The near-mythical story of GEs wrenching turnaround earns Welch abundant positive and negative buzz. Unlike many of Welchs contemporaries, he has stayed with the same company for the long run (since 1960), becoming chairman in 1981 and immediately restructuring the massive conglomerate, earning the moniker "Neutron Jack" because of his huge layoffs along the way. Through a combination of radical structural changes, a near-fanatical devotion to the Six Stigma management system and an acquisition blitzkrieg, GE leapt into the 21st century, taking no prisoners. Critics noted that under his stewardship, deep workforce reductions accompanied Welchs own ballooning salary and a tendency to treat workers and their hometowns as dispensable (Welch has said, "Ideally, youd have every plant you own on a barge, to move with currencies and changes in the economy"). Lowe promises a balanced look Welch that pulls no punches; for the most part, she delivers. But the books distracting, episodic style (a lot of the material was left over from the first book) makes it seem little more than an attempt to capitalize on curiosity about Welch prior to the publication of his much touted upcoming book. Several abundant appendices are informative but do little to explain Welchs icon status." (Publishers Weekly, April 2001) "...this book is a good read..." (Ambassador, September 2001), "Lowe promises a balanced look at Welch that pulls no punches; for the most part, she delivers."(Publishers Weekly, April, 2001) "...this book is a good read..." (Ambassador, September 2001)
