P. 7
As one marketing manager put
it “We’re just pebbles in an
ocean, but he knows about us”.
Jack always took an interest in
the personal achievements of
his staff. He once described GE
as a ‘grocery store’ where he
could just roll up his sleeves
and get behind the counter.
In ‘Jack’s grocery store’, he knew
every employee and every
customer, and usually by their
first names.
