Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
@mpouraryan, Jim Collins' philosophy is greatly admired indeed!  Agreed power can sometimes derail good companies - which successful telco companies is our mission - so very effective thoughts about good leadership.

Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
Grateful for your kind thoughts--but I would be irresponsible in noting that this is a lesson that the great Jim Collins reminded us all as he developed the concept of Level 5 Leadership which is at the heart of it is the notion of humility--although some companies seem to forget that (without getting too political about it since it is not our mission here in TT).

Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
@mpouraryan,


Great advice!  The greatest risk is what you don't know and no one knows it all - so we are all at risk - thanks for reminding us!

@mpouraryan, not much I would guess - his microphone has gone "mute".  Good examples!

Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
We can add many more--including Xerox and some of the ones who are no longer with us who did not see into the future--although I was shocked to see that SGI was still around as it was recently bought out--I remember how the SGI CEO at the time questioned Bill Gates' and his strategy--I wonder what he says now!!

Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
@mpouraryan, well said - I fully agree!  If they don't change, they can follow the "Kodak" path.

Re: AT&T's On Demand Services
Demand Driven would be a natural progression--and this in and of itself is going to probably cause sleepless nights in the Executive Offices of Hardware Manufacturers--won't it?
