A non-fiction work, it is part memoir and part business to show what it is like as a woman to have lived and worked through the eras of paternalism and materialism. The harvesting of GE and transformation to a financial business over a 20-year period involved selling, closing or moving most of the company's U.S. plants, many of them offshore and getting rid of over 180,000 U.S. middle class jobs. How could one greedy CEO accomplish all of this in the world's most diversified company. This account tell you how Jack did it. His successor Immelt is now in vesting and trying to rebuilding the company into the technological giant it once was starting with Edison. Hopefully it won't take 20 years to put it all back together again. It's a lot harder to grow a garden than harvest it.
