What strategic challenges are facing Nokia as advanced by the case study?
Nokia that was once a leader in mobile phone technology and in less than a decade it flourished and collapsed in the same period.
The collapse of its supply chain growth affected its success and to maintain this success, they failed to acquire a new growth area to complement the hugely successful mobile phone and network business. This greatly affected its provider achievements and maintaining its success was a challenge.
They also failed to focus on management growth in existing areas. They ultimately failed in a contradiction between the long-term nature of its activities and the short term performance requirements.
Decisions among the reallocation of important leadership roles and the poorly implemented 2004 re organization into a matrix structure led to the departure of vital members of the executive team, which led to a deterioration of strategic thinking.
Poor management decisions on technology-savvy failed to set parties and to resolve conflicts in the new matrix, which led to the production of poor quality products.
