I'd dismiss that idea as too costly to implement. If I were in their shoes I'd try a different approach.
Has been widely known that Japanese companies focus on longer term business goals instead of month-to-month gains, and I argue that worked alright for them.
Instead of valuing so much secrecy I'd make public a ten year business plan, and offer to buy the shares of those who lack the vision, patience, or interest in the company's goals. Thus giving freedom to the company by making those funds available to invest on a long term business plan. This would turn out to be much more affordable for the company.
- kirillzubovsky 14y agoApple wins in part because of their secrecy. Would iPhone have been so successful if they told the whole world of it's coming 10 years ahead? Well, technically they did, in their patent filings, but the world wasn't listening. But, if they did so publicly, Samsung would've been there, copying the tech way earlier then they did.
- neya 14y agoI agree with the secrecy part, but please stop with the Samsung copying Apple bullshit, it's simply not constructive. I'm sure you know how much copying went into Apple's products themselves.
