In November, 2021, GE announced that it would split the company into three public companies. During the last twenty years, this 100+ year-old corporate conglomerate, that was the idol of business leaders, investors, and business school, lost its way. As one of the original Dow 30 companies for 110 years, GE was replaced in the Dow 30 by Walgreens in 2018. There is much to discuss about this company. However, as we begin out study, let's begin by becoming more familiar with the most recent four CEOs. Choose any one of the following CEOs, and develop a brief discussion (that aligns with the word requirement) for your first posting. As you continue to read and discuss the CEOs with your colleagues, examine how they differ. Why do you think this is an important company to review as we come to the end of our study of Management and OB?
