This work is a summary of the book "WINNING" by Jack Welch and Suzy Welch.
In Winning, J. Welch and S. Welch raise a question: "What does it take to win?" This is the sole question everyone in business should be focused on each day. When your business wins, there are many great flow-on effects and benefits – people have the opportunity to grow, more jobs are created, more taxes are paid, shareholders get a return on their investment and the list goes on and on. Winning companies are literally the engine of a healthy economy, and the pinnacle of the free enterprise system.
In Winning, the authors encourage the readers to develop a personal business philosophy, and advise them on how to look at their company and their competition and how to build their company.
Pure and simple companies and people have to find a way to win day-in and day-out. There are no easy formulas that can be used, or any exotic or mysterious shortcuts involved. Winning can be brutally hard to achieve but when everything comes together and you win, great things happen. As Jack Welch puts it: "Business is a game, and winning that game is a total blast".
