The best Welch book yet!
I have read just about every book either written by or about Jack Welch that has been published. This is the best book over-all. Most of what is written is just a rehash of what Welch wrote about himself or the Author keeps repeating the same information with new graphics and slightly different format with each new book he writes. If you want more detail about the history of GE and of Welch, try another book. However, if you want good information about how he implemented his ideas and how you can do the... more info

Insightful! 
Jeffrey A. Krames' book adds another paragraph or two to the Jack Welch entry in the annals of business history.

A Brilliant Synthesis, Eloquently Expressed
I greatly admire Krames's previous books, notably The Welch Way: 24 Lessons From The World's Greatest CEO and What the Best CEOs Know: 7 Exceptional Leaders and Their Lessons for Transforming Any Business.

Practical leadership book, great to share with others.
The "4 E's" by Jeffrey Krames is among those few leadership books that you can put to immediate practical use for yourself and for others. Krames has a pleasant, to-the-point writing style and the book's clear organization and layout makes the "4E's" a compelling read.
The first part of the "4E's"," a perspective on Welch's leadership model, offers practical "how to" exercises, including "to do" lists for 4E leaders and 4E leadership self-assessments. The exercises are incisive and easy to do.
