Revitalizing General Electric
General Electric Company (GE), the much-admired U.S. conglomerate, was in crisis. GE was once revered for the strength of its industrial businesses, its ability to earn additional profits through its GE Capital subsidiary, and the breadth and depth of its management talent pool.
