Legendary GE CEO Jack Welch Speaks to DC Area Business Leaders
Welch's Speech Available For Viewing Via Archived Webcast
Vienna, Va. (June 2, 2005) -
ExecutiveBiz, a weekly digital magazine that covers the Greater Washington DC business community, today announced the availability of a webcast of the Jack Welch event held at the Kennedy Center on May 25 in partnership with the Potomac Officers Club and EO. Over 500 DC area executives attended the luncheon to hear Jack Welch discuss his new book “Winning” in a Q&A format. At the end of the luncheon, Welch stayed and autographed copies of his book for the attendees.
"The ever zestful Mr. Welch quickly captivated the audience of DC area business leaders. He provided practical and useful answers in his no-nonsense CEO fashion," said Jim Garrettson, founder and president of ExecutiveBiz and the Potomac Officers Club. “And this reminded the audience why he is always at the top of his game."
The event was sponsored by PricewaterhouseCoopers and UBS.
