Success Ingredients:

ENERGY, ENERGIZE,
EDGE, EXECUTE,
and PASSION.
-Jack Welch
I see the ingredients for success as four E’s
wrapped in a P. The first E is energy. In a fastmoving global society, every one of us has to
be going like a house afire. The second E is
energizing people. It does you no good to be a
whirling dervish if you can’t excite those who
work with you. One of your jobs as a leader
will be to energize people to take chances, so
that they succeed and build confidence. The
third E is edge, which is the ability to say yes
and no, not maybe. The fourth E is execute.
Deliver. And when I say, "wrapped in a P,"
that’s passion.

that makes fullness good,

rest sweet.

At times like this, even the
best strategy and the best
