Review

“A gripping and deeply reported account of the devastating disintegration of one of the most iconic firms ever to exist. To all of us shocked by GE’s seemingly abrupt fall from grace, this book lays out in painful detail how such a thing could have happened.”—Rita McGrath, Columbia Business School, author of Seeing Around Corners: How to Spot Inflection Points in Business Before They Happen

“Gryta and Mann tell a bracing tale of corporate venality, incompetence, and shortsighted deal-making. It's a parable with no heroes, but many lessons for anyone who wants to know how 21st Century corporate management, which venerates stock price above all other measures of value, has gone so disastrously awry.” —Andrew Rice, New York Magazine

"Lights Out is the definitive story of an American business powerhouse losing its way. Gryta and Mann's meticulous reporting puts us in the rooms—and on the private jets—where GE's leaders struggled over the company's fate, with billions of dollars in the balance. More than just an intimate profile of one company, this book is a captivating tale of human complexity, greed, and hubris." —Evan Ratliff, author of The Mastermind: Drugs. Murder. Empire. Betrayal

"This vital history of an American institution warns us of what happens when a company pursues growth for growth’s sake, and its leaders struggle to understand what they can and cannot control." —David Gura, Anchor and Correspondent, MSNBC

"Possessing all the suspense of a true-crime account, Gryta and Mann’s riveting look at GE’s previous two decades underlines the harsh facts of survival in 21st-century business." —Publishers Weekly

"Gryta and Mann expand on their Wall Street Journal reporting to create a compelling narrative of a giant’s spectacular fall in this powerful and fascinating read." —Booklist

"This revealing and accessible postmortem of GE’s downward spiral will be important reading for a wide audience, including customers, employees, former employees, and investors, as well as anyone interested in 21st-century corporate management." —Library Journal

##讀過的感覺生詞最多的一本

##乾貨不多 基本上是對Immelt個人的批鬥 幾乎沒有討論Welch的曆史責任 也沒有深究龐大組織係統性失效的根源 另外GE Capital證明來錢最容易的還是無銀行之名行銀行之實(此處應有螞蟻)

評分

##再看看GE分拆的現狀,唏噓不已。巨人之死,總有太多的積微成疾--膏肓之疾…

評分

開頭還行,中間有點囉嗦,倒來倒去講Jeff如何爛,但例舉齣來的也算不上多大點事。 其實更想看的是Jack,他20年傳奇纔是隱藏著衰落之根,當然Jeff厲害點的話,大概也不至於落到如此地步,Jack神話也不會破滅。 John一年多就是把問題都抖齣來瞭,問題是作為top leader,太過negative, transparency也是不行的。 Culp很興奮的不教書瞭,隻是他能力挽狂瀾嗎?隻有天知道。
