The Digital Enterprise Wave
“The greatest danger in times of
turbulence is not the turbulence – it is to
act with yesterday’s logic.”
Peter Drucker
“At the height of its power, the photography
company Kodak employed more than
140,000 people and was worth $28 billion.
They even invented the first digital camera.
But today Kodak is bankrupt, and the new
face of digital photography has become
Instagram. When Instagram was sold to
Facebook for $1 billion, it employed only 13
people. Where did all those jobs disappear?
And what happened to the wealth that all
those middle-class jobs created?”
Jaron Lanier
