I like the juxtaposition of the different leadership styles of Jack Welch versus Alfred Sloan. It gave me a lot of fodder for how I lead and how that can change based on what's needed at the time. Very insightful. They each present completely different styles for different times. Unfortunately, with this economy, Sloan is now more relevant than ever!
Also, I enjoyed seeing the human element of their lives, what their close friends or business associates thought and how that impacted their philosophy of management. I like that because it rounds out the characters versus them just droning on theoretically. It makes it more real. I highly recommend this DVD.

Jack Welch embodies the entrepreneurial mindset of a winner, he's a genius and a common sensical leader. This DVD, however, is weak and does little to transmit his thinking. It features little of him actually speaking, and even when it does he does not go into depth on his patented 20-70-10 or motivational strategies - in fact most of it the DVD is his childhood friends from the 50's and an HR Manager that worked with him for a while. [...]

Jack Welch shares his valuable insight and vast experience in leading successful teams. He shares the power of being totally honest with all of his employees. A great resource for any business professional!

I saw this show on PBS and I'm thrilled it's now out on DVD.

This is like having Jack Welch as your mentor. I've given this DVD to my employees as a great motivator around career and work.

This is an excellent resource - really helpful and full of insight. I recommend it highly! Honest, straightforward, and to the point.
