5. You are promoted but are now in charge of a hostile workforce.
6. You have to decide who to make unnecessary in your new department
after a merger.
Reading I: 1. Jack Welch successfully led General Electric through a
period of great change. Do you think he sees change as a danger, an
opportunity or a challenge?
Read the quotations quickly. What is Welch's general attitude to change?
1. “We want to be a company
that is constantly renewing itself,
leaving the past behind, adapting to
change. Managements that hang on to
weakness for whatever reason -
tradition, emotion, or their own
management weakness - won't be
around in the future.”
4. “Regular change doesn't
work very well in the type of
transformation General Electric has
gone through. If your change isn't big
enough, the bureaucracy can beat
you. Look at Winston Churchill and
Franklin Roosevelt. They said, "This
is what it's going to be." And then
they did it. Big brave changes”.
2. “How do you bring people
into the change process? Start with
reality. Get all of the facts out. Give
people the motivation for change,
laying it out in clearest, most dramatic
expressions. When everybody gets the
same facts, they'll generally come to the
same finale.”
5. “(GE leaders always) have
colossal energy and the ability to
energise and stimulate others, to
motivate and enjoy change and not be
frightened or paralyzed be it, and to
see change as an opportunity, not a
danger.”
3. “The difference between
winning and losing will be how the
men and women of our company view
change. If they see it as a threat, we
lose. But if they are provided with the
educational apparatus and are
optimistic to use them - to the point
where they see change as an
opportunity, then every door we must
pass through to win big around the
world will swing open to us.”
6. “Most bureaucracies
unfortunately still think in
incremental terms rather than in
terms of fundamental change.
Changing the culture means
constantly asking now how fast am I
going. How well am I doing versus
how well I did a year or two years
before? How fast and how well am I
doing compared with the world
outside? Are we going faster, and are
we doing better against that external
standard?’
2. Which quotation:
1) refers to how people react to change?
2) refers to the qualities and abilities that a leader of General Electric
should have?
