• Why Advertising Agencies Must Disrupt Themselves | LinkedIn

  How might this apply to schools and education:

  “How can an existing company cope in this environment? Disrupt your own brand. That’s what Andy Grove did years ago by creating Intel’s own low-end disruptor: the Celeron chip (on the advice of Clay Christensen, by the way).

  To take it one step further, Christensen believed that ultimately the only way a entrenched company can avoid being disrupted is to set up a small separate venture – located away from headquarters — that functions like a new company. This venture must not be held to the same income and profit expectations as the mother ship, but should be run like a start up. Importantly, the new venture cannot be a “division” of the established incumbent, operating under the corporate umbrella. It must have complete independence to implement its own structure and business model.”
