In 1859 Edwin Drake and E. B. Bowditch of the Seneca Oil Company drilled the first commercial oil well in the United States in Titusville, Pennsylvania.

Jack Welch was the CEO of General Electric (GE) from 1981 to 2001 where he increased the value of that organization by 4,000%. During his reign as CEO, he realized that industry was entering a period of constant change and acceptance and acceleration of change would make the difference between successful and unsuccessful businesses (Von Der Linn, 2009). He commissioned a study to create a toolkit that would accelerate change based on research and best practices throughout the world (Von Der Linn, 2009). The result was the GE Change Acceleration Program. The program was developed in early 1990’s and many changes have occurred in the business world that may result in CAP being outdated. Comparing the GE CAP program to a modern model of change management by Spector (2012) will reveal if the GE program is still viable and useful.
