Reading: Jack Welch C1: "Building Self Confidence"

“Confidence gives you courage and extends your reach. It lets you take grater
risks and achieve far more than you thought possible. Building self confidence
in others is a huge part of Leadership”. –Jack Welch.

Jack Welch starts his autobiography with the chapter ‘Building Self Confidence’. I infer that this means he believes it is the foundation of his own success. He credits his own mother with building his own level of confidence and overcoming his shortfalls – such as his speech impediment.

Instilling confidence (encouraging) someone is probably one of the greatest gifts you can give someone – particularly your own children.
