<content:encoded><![CDATA[A January 30, 2012 article by Financial Times on the subject quotes Rita McGrath: “Innovation needs to be treated as material and systematic, not an on-again-off-again process,” says Columbia Business School’s Ms McGrath. The vested interests inside corporations arrayed against disruptive change can be powerful.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[MSNBC interviewed Rita McGrath about the Kodak Eastman Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing:  "It’s really up in the air at the moment," said Rita McGrath, a professor of management at Columbia Business School and an expert in company growth and innovation. "There was this last ditch, hail Mary effort to sell the patents to generate enough cash to keep the place from cratering. Now that that’s happened, it’s an opportunity for a fresh look. If a new leader comes in who can do something really remarkable with the technology they have, then the employees might have a new place to go to."

<content:encoded><![CDATA["Bank of America might have been able to pull this off if the other banks had stuck to their plans for similar fees," Gunther McGrath continued.<br />
<br />
'In some industries, even highly disliked ones, companies can get away with charging customers extra because extra charges are adopted by all competitors quickly. Remember the howls of protest when airlines started charging for checked bags? That move stuck because all the airlines did it at once, and customers didn't have a choice of going to a non-fee charging airline.'<br />
<br />
Bank of America's competitors, though, essentially left the bank stranded on an ice float with this charge, she said. <br />
