A Quote by Jack Welch

Don't manage - lead change before you have to. — © Jack Welch
Don't manage - lead change before you have to.
Face reality as it is, not as it was, or as you wish it were. Be candid with everyone. Don't manage, lead. Change before you have to. If you don't have a competitive advantage, don't compete. Control your own destiny, or someone else will.
You must manage yourself before you can lead someone else.
If you want to lead a family/team/organization, learn to lead/manage yourself first.
We learn by reflecting on what has happened. The process seldom works in reverse, although most educational processes assume that it does. We hope that we can teach people how to live before they live, or how to manage before they manage.
Without change there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable.
To manage one must lead. To lead, one must understand the work that he and his people are responsible for
George H.W. Bush said we will lead on climate change, and we'll lead from the top. That was 30 years ago. And now Republicans can't even acknowledge that climate change is human caused or real because of the outside spending in our elections.
Everyone wants to change, but change demands desire and discipline before it becomes delightful. There is always the agony of choice before the promise of change.
Inexperienced leaders are quick to lead before knowing anything about the people they intend to lead. But mature leaders listen, learn and then lead.
Manage things. Lead people.
You manage things and lead people.
You can manage what you do not understand; but you cannot lead it.
History reports that the men who can manage men manage the men who can manage only things, and the men who can manage money manage all.
Cause change and lead; accept change and survive; resist change and die.
Women have a lot of power in private life. There are many men who would say, 'Hey, women already rule my life.' But with women, more is more. The more there are, the more the world gets used to seeing them. We change the culture. We begin to expand options and lead and manage.
Those who manage change in modern organizations need to learn to dance, to become healers capable of releasing collective energy to heal the wounds of change.
