10: Get an Insider's Look at GE's Communications Revolution
Join NJ/IABC

Bill Lane, author and former speechwriter for Jack Welch at GE.
Do You Know
Jack? Bill Lane does. Based on his 20 years experience as Jack Welch's
speechwriter at GE, Bill Lane tells us how companies, organizations
and individuals can move from the "PowerPoint purgatory"
of droning reports and self-absorbed chart reading to an exciting
realm of candor, sharing and learning through communications.
After the presentation
and Q&A, Bill will sign copies of his new book "Jacked
Up: The Inside Story of How Jack Welch Talked GE into Becoming the
World's Greatest Company." The first 50 registrants for this
