Paraphrasing (30st paragraph)

Text

Welch understands that an organization can be as impressionable as an individual. Every time he intervenes, the stories reverberate through the company. Barely four weeks before CNBC and Dow Jones & Co. (DJ) formally launched their joint-venture cable program on April 1, for example, Welch called up NBC head Robert C. Wright to tell him he wanted to examine the blueprint for the launch. Less than 24 hours later, a group of managers and programmers marched into Welch's New York office for a detailed presentation. "They had a month before the launch, and I think that's an important moment," says Welch. "That (request) will create frenzy, and we'll have a discussion about it. Not that I'll add a helluva lot of value, but I'll be there banging away at it," he adds, clearly satisfied that the hustle he provoked will give the project a renewed intensity that can only favor its success.
