Welch's pragmatic style revitalized GE, and in this book, he applies the same practical approach to real-life cases, telling the story of how Americans achieve success in their careers and personal lives. —Rudy Giuliani, former Mayor of New York City "Winning" is the result everyone striving for success wants to achieve. Although we often hear "fail repeatedly, keep trying," the ultimate goal is to win, to win big, to win decisively!

It's a must-read for every business leader seeking success. —Dongsheng Chen, Chairman and CEO of Taikang Life Insurance Co., Ltd. Our increasingly dull financial and economic book market urgently needs the return of a master like Jack Welch. Four years ago, China CITIC Press timely brought Welch's first work, Jack Welch: An Autobiography, to Chinese readers, injecting unprecedented vitality into the financial book market, which has not subsided to this day. After the autobiography, Welch vowed never to write another book. But in these four years, he traveled and lectured extensively, meeting thousands of ambitious people whose bizarre questions led Welch to reconsider what constitutes effective business philosophy. A new marriage also brought Welch renewed vitality, allowing him to merge his lifelong business insights with modern management concepts and co-author a book on the theme of Winning with his wife, also an expert in management. Welch calls it his "retirement gift." Welch summarizes all business problems into one question: How can we win? In this business success guide, in addition to the well-known "4E" plan, Welch offers four basic principles for entrepreneurs, eight fresh and practical tips for leaders, and guidance on six aspects of how your company can win, five secrets to winning in competition, and four laws for your career to win. World investment master Buffett has reviewed his old friend and new book, saying, "Whenever I talk to Jack about business operations, his energy and enthusiasm light up the entire room. Reading Winning will give you a similar feeling—every page jumps off the page with vitality." Winning, in clear and concise language, answers the very difficult yet crucial questions people must face in their work and lives. They are so in sync, Welch's optimism and Susie's pragmatism, bringing us profound insights, original thinking, and practical advice. Welch has also repeatedly told the media that without Susie's help, his new book would not have been completed. Winning was just published in the United States and ranked among the top three on Amazon's bestseller list within a week of release—though, of course, the top spot was taken by Harry Potter. But for adult readers, Jack Welch's influence is far beyond ordinary. In the business world, Winning is the Harry Potter!
