Managing Through Volatility: Lessons From The Great Transformer

 

Jeff Immelt, 9th Chairman and Recently Retired CEO at G.E. believes the task of CEO has never been as difficult as it is today. He should know: He led a team of 300,000 people for 16 years—through recessions, bubbles, and at least three “black swan” events. He transformed General Electric from the quintessential American conglomerate into an innovative, digitally-focused global powerhouse. In the words of the Harvard Business review, “Immelt utterly remade the organization he inherited.” How did he do it? How does a leader not only persevere, but thrive, in spite of crises? How do companies create meaningful, lasting value for their customers? Immelt answers all these questions and more, sharing key takeaways from the initiatives he implemented and inspiring audiences to embrace change so that their organization, like GE,
is ready for any future. This is one of the highly anticipated FEI Boston speaking topics.
