Overview: The article talks about the three cycles of learning that Jack Welch has gone through and used them for the improvement of business. In the first cycle he focused on the elimination of variety in its portfolio of businesses by reducing the nonperforming business units. During a subsequent learning cycle Welch focused the company on simplifying and eliminating nonvalue-added activities. The third phase of discovery focused on the elimination of variation. This learning goes hand in hand with the evolving concept of leadership required to sustain a winning competitive position.
