Immelt "Industrial Internet and Additive Manufacturing will define GE"
Jeff Immelt - The future comes. Never apologize for investing in it. The long term is about more than a series of short terms. It is about ideas. The Industrial Internet and Additive Manufacturing will define GE in the future. Don’t give up. Our best GE businesses have had a “True North” to build the future. Sometimes our owners have a different time horizon or value metrics more than the process. Good business people value the journey as well.
5. Act big and small, long and short; keep a lot of thoughts to yourself.
6. Deputize others.
7. We win in markets, not conference rooms.
8. Like the work more than the title.
9. Never give up.
10. Lead in the moment. Give fully of yourself… always appreciate work, workers and jobs.
Gotta love #9 - Never give up. Mike Tyson said, “Everyone has a strategy until they get punched in the nose.” I know we can get better. Leadership is a deep journey into yourself. How fast can you learn? How much can you change? What do you want to give? What will you put up with?
