Give it a rest already.
First, Welch never worked at Boeing. If you're going to blame someone for what happened at Boeing, blame someone who actually was at Boeing. Even if they tried to follow Welch's approach, blame them for trying to do what they couldn't, or couldn't do there. Welch didn't do that.
Second, GE ran into problems at least a decade after Welch left. But no, it couldn't have been Immelt's fault! It had to be Welch's! Really? Why?
If you're going to say that Immelt tried to continue Welch's approach, fine, but blame Immelt for either not being able to pull it off, or for continuing with it after it no longer worked. When Welch did it, it worked fine. It worked fine for five years after he left, too.
Finally, climate action? That's Welch's fault, too? Really, people?
Get over Jack Welch. He's not to blame for what goes wrong decades later.
