Business outlook
Pros
Sometimes a new CEO has to have prior experience in a sector related to the company he or she is leading. Other times, the CEO needs to have worked for years at the company. But occasionally an outsider’s point of view is needed to see what others can’t (or won’t) about a company’s implosion.
Cons
GE is a diversified conglomerate that needs all of its divisions to perform well. But the one unit that absolutely has to shine isn’t and may not for a long, long while.
