GE Chairman Jeff Immelt just gave a lengthy interview to the Swedish publication Dagens Industri during which he was asked: What is the last book you have read? Bless him! His answer was Fixing the Game: Bubbles, Crashes and What Capitalism can Learn from the NFL. It is nice to have the GE Chairman as a fan!
The article is entitled ‘GE-chefen målar framtiden i grönt’ (or GE Boss Paints the Future in Green) by Maria Ottoson, published July 6. It is behind a paywall so I don’t have a url (at least yet). But a cleverer surfer can probably get it.
Cheers

Let me add that, in my opinion, Prof. Roger Martin’s reserch contributions to the field of business strategy are very valuable from all points of view.

The article was in the Weekend edition (not online) and in Swedish only. GE put it up on their website however.

Strong possibility of the NFL being diluted in quality, by extending the regular season to 18 games. My solution generates additional league revenue and increased competition, without sacrificing the quality and integrity of the NFL.
