In his 20 years at General Electric, Mr. Welch transformed the company into a dynamic and revered powerhouse. His management innovations and skills are recognised around the globe.
Upon retiring from GE in 2001, Mr. Welch published his autobiography "JACK: Straight from the Gut," an international best-seller.
Mr. Welch is currently the head of Jack Welch, LLC, where he serves as a consultant to a small group of Fortune 500 business CEOs and speaks to businesspeople and students around the world.
Appearing in Dubai for the event are six of the world's most influential business leaders, including Rudy Giuliani, the former Mayor of New York, who was instrumental in rebuilding the city after the September 11th terrorist attacks.
Up to 1,500 delegates are expected to attend Leaders in Dubai, organised by Leading Minds. It will be the biggest business conference at the Dubai International Convention Centre since the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund in September 2003.
