„A legmélyebb titok az, hogy az élet nem a felfedezés, hanem a teremtés folyamata. Nem felfedezed magad, hanem újjáteremted magad. Ezért ne azt keresd, hogy megtudd, ki vagy, hanem azt, hogy ki akarsz lenni.”

“Six Sigma has forever changed GE.

Jack Welch (1935) American executive: General Electric CEO

“In GE every day, there's an informal, unspoken personnel review—in the lunchroom, the hallways, and in every business meeting. That intense people focus—testing everyone in a myriad of environments—defines managing at GE. In the end, that's what GE is. We build great people, who then build great products and services.”

“There are advantages to being the chairman. One of my favorite perks was picking out an issue and doing what I called a "deep dive." It's spotting a challenge where you think you can make a difference— one that looks like it would be fun— and then throwing the weight of your position behind it. Some might justifiably call it "meddling." I've often done this— just about everywhere in the company.”

“If you like business, you have to like GE. If you like ideas, you have to love GE. This is a place where ideas can flow freely from and through more than 20 separate businesses and more than 300,000 employees. Boundaryless behavior allows ideas to come from anywhere. We formalize our freewheeling style in a series of operating meetings that blend into one another.”

Jack Welch (1935) American executive: General Electric CEO

“The best Six Sigma projects begin not inside the business but outside it, focused on answering the question—how can we make the customer more competitive? What is critical to the customer’s success?… One thing we have discovered with certainty is that anything we do that makes the customer more successful inevitably results in a financial return for us.”
