It's not only "good management", it's also good business.
A company's responsibility is to it's stockholders, not to the general public or anyone else.
They spend the R&D money to create the technology, they can do as they please with it.

I agree. But if you piss off the wrong person reading this, you never know man.

Check back tomorrow for results. Then pretend you never cared to begin with and disappear.

He's great in his CEO role, and usually better about choosing his words. It surprised me he used this example and said "good management" in those terms.

It also means buying out small competitors that have the chance to become big competitors.
My friend started a small deer corn company with Dolph Briscoe and a farm store in South Texas - and they sold a huge order to Walmart (they had to install a railroad spur to handle the corn) and the main supplier to Walmart came in and bought them out.

Is your boss some sort of deity? does your boss float above the clouds and have ritual sacrifices made in his honor?
innovation is managed by successful companies. you dont jeopardize your business to make something better, you make something better to enhance your business
so if kodak goes all out for digital, WTF do they do with all the equipment and infrastructure they implemented for film? Sell it all to Rick at Pawn Stars?
My company spends $1 billion annually on R&D. It takes approx. 7 years to deliver a new technology from concept to market viability. In that 7 years the process of adopting that innovation is thoroughly refined. This includes weening high margin markets off of old tech and moving that old tech to low margin markets

Mark has really let the cat out of the bag. All the old boys at the Evil Corporate CEOs Club will likely shun him in the locker room now.
