What separates the industrial giants that thrive for decades from those that spectacularly implode? "Lessons from the Titans" reveals how America's largest corporations-from GE to Boeing to Honeywell-achieved extraordinary success or suffered catastrophic failure through their management systems, cultural choices, and strategic decisions. These aren't just corporate case studies; they're blueprints for navigating today's volatile business landscape. When Jack Welch slashed 100,000 jobs at GE in the 1980s, few imagined his ruthless efficiency would transform a struggling conglomerate into America's most admired company. Yet decades later, the same GE would crumble under Jeffrey Immelt's leadership, losing over $500 billion in market value. What powerful forces drive such dramatic reversals of fortune?
