Lights Out

Pride, Delusion, and the Fall of General Electric

Thomas Gryta

Lights Out is the captivating history of General Electric's decline, told by two Wall Street Journal reporters who covered its fall. This iconic corporation was once a symbol of job security and investment success, powering everything from lightbulbs to American turbines and boasting legendary CEO Jack Welch. However, as Welch's handpicked successor, Jeff Immelt, attempted to fix past mistakes, he stumbled into new ones of his own, leading to the company's ultimate decline. This book is a cautionary tale for our times, highlighting the danger of losing direction in a win-at-all-costs culture.
