Industry Driving Forces
• Rapid decline in demand for traditional
photography equipment in developed
economies
• Rapid growth in demand for digital cameras
in developed economies
• Steady decline in demand for film and photo
processing
• Development of new imaging technology
such as photo-enabled wireless telephones
and high-megapixel digital cameras
15
Internal Factors Analysis
16
SWOT Analysis
Strength
• Existing Brand equity
•Distribution Presence
•Competitive capabilities
• Market advantage
•Acquire many strategically
aligned companies
Opportunity
• Digital Image
• New alliances
•On line photo sharing and
storage
Weakness
•Rapidly decreasing sales
revenue
•EBITDA are very low
•Work force has been cut off
• Corporate Culture
Threat
•Competition in traditional
•Photo capable mobile phone

Q2: How would you
evaluate Kodak’s
handling of the forced
downsizing that it had to
implement ?
18
Expected Outcomes
Economic and Human Consequences:
• Enhanced efficiency and productivity within a firm
(to do more with less)
• Increased value for share- holders.
• lower expense ratios, increased return on investment,
higher profits and stock prices
• Remain competitive.
19
Actual Economic Outcomes
• No decrease in costs, in some cases
expenses actually increased
• Drops in Productivity
-Number of other costs
-Costs of quality as a result of increased
rework
-Overtime costs
20
Actual Human Outcomes
•
•
•
•
Employees loose their jobs
Heightened levels of stress
Job dissatisfaction
Loss of morale, distrust and drops in
productivity
21
Downsizing Results
Unsuccessful because:
• Poorly executed or not managed properly
• Inability to look beyond the traditional 3-C
approach (Command, Control, and
Compartmentalization)
22
Downsizing Results...
• Resistance to change,
resulting in loss of
productivity, efficiency,
and competitiveness
• Firm not well prepared
(employee resentment
and concern, loss of
morale, lack of
innovation and creation)
23
Q3: Eastman Kodak has
not closed down its
entire operations in
Australia.
24
It still employs over 1300
people and is now trying to
reinvent itself based on a
stronger focus on digital
technology and by
developing strategies
around online processing
and digital album services
25
How Kodak can stimulate
innovation in pursuing this
strategy?
Structural variables:
• Expanding digital imaging service
e.q. By expanding product & services. For
example Kiosks that could print image directly
from mobile phone.
• Develop their own range of digital cameras to
meet this new demand of the consumers
26
Kodak Stimulating
Innovation
Human resource variable:
• Training workforce
• Job security
• Encouraging creativity
Culturable variable:
• Tolerance of risk
• Tolerance of conflict of opinions
• Focus on end results.
27
Q4: What could other
organisations learn from
Kodak about change and
the need for innovation?
28
Five lessons from Kodak Case
1. External Appearances can be Deceiving:
• A business can already be underway before
anyone is aware of the fact.
• External measures of success(sales,
market share or profits) are all too often
misleading
• External indicators might look good, but
might get irrelevant over time
29
Five lessons from Kodak
Case
2. Shift Happens
• Enormous pressure on industries to keep up
and remain relevant
• Kodak underestimated the pace of change
in competitive environment
30
Five lessons from Kodak
Case
...Shift Happens
• Kodak’s failure to keep up with technological
advancements and the advent of digital age
• Relentless shifts in social appetites, economic
fluctuations, government regulation and market
forces cannot be ignored
31
Five lessons from Kodak
Case
3. Your Greatest Strength can be your
Weakness:
• Kodak’s very success and prosperity
prevented them to keep up as times changed
• It is easy to become a hostage of your own
success
• Businesses must not be attached to what
worked in the past at the expense of
embracing what will work in future
32
Five lessons from Kodak
Case
4. Innovation is not the perfect solution
• In Kodak’s case, innovation was far from
absent despite popular rhetoric
• Innovation in the wrong areas at the wrong time
that contributed to their downfall (purchasing
Sterling Drugs in 1988 and even producing
bathroom cleaners and medical-testing devices
in the early 1990s).
33
Five lessons from Kodak
Case
5. Its not all over till it is over:
• Discontinue unprofitable products
• Launch new and innovative product
• Focus on high potential products
– Kodak’s focus on Kiosks and mini-lab
– Online services such as photo printing and sharing
• Emphasize on niche market
34
Q 5 It is expected that 1.3
billion camera phones
will be sold worldwide by
2012, and that the basic
digital camera will
disappear, in particular at
the lower end of the
market.
35
What are the implications
of this for digital camera
manufacturers?
36
The low-end of high-end
camera business
• Low end of digital camera is on decline
• Given rise to low end of high end camera
sales(mirror less slr)
• People are buying more slrs(single-lens
reflex) then ever before Cheaper versions
of the digital SLR subset
• Switching consumer to high end market
obstructing smart phone cameras to
compete
37
How are digital camera
producers such s Kodak,
Canon, Olympus and
Sony placed to deal with
this?
38
Digital Manufacturers
Technique
• Digital Camera manufactures are dealing with
the situation fairly well by offering high end
camera at cheaper rates .
• Considering consumer behavior in mind more
photos are being taken then ever before & more
people are pursuing photography as their hobby
than ever before.
39
How is this similar to or
different from the
situation Kodak found
itself in with the
emergence of digital
photo technology?
40
This time situation is different from
what Kodak found itself because
technology for imaging has not
change….. Is just more competitive
(unlike Kodak's case)
41
Discussion Question.
New rules for running business? A
Silent Revolution

“How do dominant
companies lose their
position? Two-thirds
of the time, they
pick the wrong
competitor to
worry about.”

The Power of Chaos!!!
45
This history ought to be humbling to fans of
modern management methods. Careful
planning and thorough analysis, those
business school basics, may have their
place, but they provide little guidance in the
face of disruptive changes that alter an
industry’s very fundamentals.” —Marc Levinson, FT,
0425.06 (author of The Box: How the Shipping Container Made the World
Smaller and the World Economy Bigger)
46

strongest of the
species that survives,
nor the most
intelligent, but the
one most responsive
to change.” —Charles Darwin
