Reaching the apex of the career ladder by gradually getting promoted to the top is a thing of the past. From my experience as a career coach, career ladders in most organizations have not existed for at least fifteen years. Jack Welch laid off thousands, "de-layering," as some people called it. It's a different world.

Blogging since 2002, being actively involved in digital marketing since the early 90′s, and being online since the days of the ARPANET I have a bit of history with most things digital. Successful businesses adapt to market innovations and thrive, while those that fail to make iterative leaps fall by the wayside.

I admired him and was pleased when later in his career he managed the Tigers to a World Series Championship as well. Jack Welch had some of it, but the sports coaches were a law unto themselves. The Big Red Machine had great players, but they also had a fabulous manager. I always liked George “Sparky&# Anderson.

My knowledge of corporate leaders' 360-degree feedback indicates that one out of four of them has a listening deficit—the effects of which can paralyze cross-unit collaboration, sink careers, and if it's the CEO with the deficit, derail the company. Earlier in his career, as a business unit manager, he recognized that he must cut costs.

After all, as Leonhardt points out, many top business school graduates start their careers with large consulting firms. Steve Jobs, for example, often relied less on market research than on his gut feel for what customers would want. And while he was sometimes wrong, more often his instincts were on target.

While at GE, Jack Welch popularized the notion that it was good to fire the "bottom 10" of his managers every year. Second , at regular intervals of a person's career, there should be not just "performance reviews" but also what I call a "Fit Test Point."

Let me be blunt – you won’t earn anyone’s respect, at least not the respect of anyone who matters if your concern for career success overshadows your concern for the well-being of your family.

Compared with my colleague, I had accomplished so little over such a long career; my two measly books were more like an embarrassment, given his output. When I passed his office and he wasn't there, I was sure that he was meeting with Jack Welch or someone famous. Robert Merton was 46 when he won the award. You see the problem.

In the 20th century, a select group of leaders — General Motor's Alfred Sloan, HP's David Packard and Bill Hewlett, and GE's Jack Welch — set the standard for the way corporations are run. In the 21st century only IBM's Sam Palmisano has done so. But IBM hasn't flourished because it kowtows to Wall Street. It is not about you.

The highlight of the day for me was when Jack Welch took center stage, and center stage he took. In a world where everything is connected, anything is possible. Leaders make the news, they don’t report it. Winning is the biggest force multiplier that a leader has. Jack literally held court – he was marvelous.

How do you become a market leader in the midst of rapid change? You predict that we will have only 100 dominant players in 50 markets by 2050. In fact, many of their leaders have forgotten how they got there – mission, talent, offering, and markets. Another indication of the speed and extent of dominance is market cap.
