Overview
When Jack Welch left General Electric (GE) in 2001, after having led the company as its CEO for 20 years, he pocketed the biggest severance payment in history: $417 million.
Even GE doesn't shell out half a billion just like that, but for the manager of the century, sure. GE's value had grown 4000% under Jack's reign. When you take a company that's already worth $12 billion, and increase its worth 40 times, that makes those $417 million seem like peanuts.
Needless to say, the man has a good tip or two about leadership.
