As most of you know, Kodak has been in the news lately. And not in a good way. Check out this article just put up on the web entitled The Rise and Fall of Eastman Kodak.

I spent much of my professional career working at Kodak. 27 years to be exact. I learned a lot about business. In fact, much of what I write about in my book is based upon what I learned while employed at Kodak. Sadly, many of those lessons have apparently not sunk in to the remaining folks over there, and Kodak is in deep trouble. So much so that articles like this are being written as preludes to the inevitable books and … who knows… perhaps even movies.

My book is actually plugged in the article, and although I think it’s unfortunate that George Fisher is being criticized for endorsing my book, I still appreciate the press!

This is a good article, albeit extremely negative and incomplete. But I’m sure the author will continue to add information gathered by Kodak veterans like myself and hone the data until it tells an extremely interesting and revealing tale of how such a giant and mighty American corporation can succumb to the everyday weaknesses we as humans all possess. I know I want a copy!
