Présentation PTT sur l'innovation :
Diapositive
Peter Drucker : “Management tends to believe that anything that that has lasted for a fair amount of time must be normal and go on forever. Anything that contradicts what we have come to consider a law of nature is then rejected as unsound”
Commentaire de la diapositive:
The same excuses are said by managers as are said by companies being pitched.
Diapositive précédente :
Your boss knows more… (fausse idée)
- Internal “Innovator’s Dilemma”
- History of management – factories, banks, assembly lines. Organizing large groups of people for controlled repeatable tasks
- An established manager carries similar qualities as an established company…
Someone with a lot of experience and knowledge of an industry-make them the greatest resistors to new ideas…they have the most to lose.
Une idée? Je ne vois pas du tout ce que pitched veut dire ici.

ciblé ?
...que les sociétés ciblées (voire ici critiquées) ?
c'est tout ce que je vois....(l'anglais est bizarre par endroits - to 'say excuses', et plus bas 'make' au pluriel, comme si écrit par deux personnes)

si l'on suit l'idée de to pitch a tent = monter une tente
on parle aussi de pitch your company for investors dans ce cas-là cela rejoint le sens de présenter votre société pour attirer les investisseurs. Bon courage!

cible d'une OPA [offre publique d'achat]
This appears to have been written by a non-native English speaker (cf "excuses said" this would nornally be "excuses made." So I suspect "pitched" is not quite English either. I'm guessing it means "targeted" as in targeted as an enterprise to be taken over.
Example sentence:
The New York Stock Exchange made its pitch to take over Euronext, the Paris-based equities and derivatives exchange
