Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric, and 21st century business thought leader, had some very nice things to say about Mitt Romney on January 9th on CNBC.
“In my lifetime, Mitt Romney is the most qualified leader I’ve ever seen run for the presidency in the United States,” Welch said. He went onto say, “We haven’t’ had anybody do all these things . . . Certainly Obama didn’t have those credentials, two years in the Senate,” he said. “Come
on, we got a guy a here who’s a leader that’s demonstrated beyond anything we’ve ever had, great family. We’re the luckiest people in the world to have this guy there at this point in time.”
This goes to show that business experience managing big companies can be a powerful credential when being President. If you can manage businesses like Staples and many other great companies like Mitt Romney has, then you have a better chance of being a great manager of the Jurassic Federal government.
