  • Nokia Rise and Fall

    EMSE 6005.10 Organizational Behavior For The Engineering

    Managers

    Professor Andy Sakka

    Abhishek Thakur

    Akshat Amrut Oswal

  • Nokia history:

    Nokia was founded by Fredrik Idestam, a mining engineer in 1865.

    The name Nokia was decided in 1871 when he opened his second paper

    mill on the bank of Nokianvirta river. Nokia started out with making

    paper which incidentally was one of the very first technologies used

    for communications. Fredrik Idestam was the chairman of the company

    till 1896 when he retired, and Leo Mechelin took over as the chairman.

    Under Mechelin, Nokia started a new business unit of electricity

    generation. In 1898, Eduard Polon founded the Finnish Rubber Works,

    which later became Nokias rubber business. They were making

    everything from galoshes to tires. In 1912, Finnish Cable Works was

    established by Arvid Wickstrom, which later became Nokias cable and

    electronic business.

    In 1967, all three of these jointly owned companies came together

    to form the Nokia corporation. Nokias first thrust in

    telecommunications came when they began developing radio telephones

    for the army and emergency services. During this period, the company

    was involved in many businesses including paper products, tire

    manufacturing, footwears, communication cables, televisions ,

    electricity generation machinery, robotics , chemicals, plastics and

    many more. By 1987,, Nokia became one of the leading manufacturers of

  • TV in Europe. By 1990, Nokia decided to concentrate its efforts on the

    fastest growing business of telecommunications & leave all other

    companies behind. They sold out all other business divisions.

    An Era of Communication

    Nokia was not a new player in telecommunication field when they

    started concentrating on it in 1990s. Instead, they had the ball

    rolling from 1979 when they created a radio telephone company Mobira

    Oy as a joint venture with one of the leading TV maker Salora in

    Finland. They started with the Nokia DX 200 which was a digital switch

  • for telephone exchanges. They worked on the development of a version

    of exchange & Nordic Mobile Telephony network was born.

    In 1987, GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) is adopted

    as the European standard for digital mobile technology. This new

    technology revolutionized the telecommunication industry with its

    high-quality voice calls, international roaming and support for text

    messages.

  • The Growth of a Mobile Giant

    Nokia truly entered a new age GSM cell phone time with their

    Nokia 1011 model which was launched in 1992. During this time, Finland

    was undergoing a severe economic meltdown and Nokia was also in a

    severely crunched economic situation. In 1994, Nokia launched their

    2100 series phones which were the first phones with the now famous

    Nokia ringtone in them. Nokia had planned a target to sell 400,000 of

    these phones which was a big number at that time, but they got lucky

    and it turned out to be such a huge success that they sold over 20

    million devices worldwide. This was truly the start of the ride for

    Nokia atop the cellphone business.

  • As the graph, clearly depicts, Nokia was the clear the gorilla in

    the cellphone market in 1990s, with almost 100% market share. As the

    time, moved towards the next century competition for Nokia grew but

    still they were able to hold onto their market leader position. From

    1996 to 2001, Nokias turnover increased almost fivefold from EUR 6.5

    billion to EUR 31 billion.

    With the start of the next century Nokia just kept on growing

    bigger & bigger becoming the leader in the mobile technology. In 1999,

    Nokia launched the Nokia 7110 which was the first phone capable of

    rudimentary web-based functions including emails. Within 2 years Nokia

    launched its first phone with a built-in camera and again in September

    2002 they came out with a phone capable of capturing videos i.e. the

    Nokia 3650. During this time, there was a huge number new patented

    technology coming out from the Research and Development division of

    Nokia, which was helping their share prices soar to the sky.

    Nokia launched the 6650 with 3G technology in 2002 and by 2005

    Nokia had sold its billionth phone which was a Nokia 1100 in

    Nigeria.In 2007, Nokia was recognized as the 5th most valued brand in

    the world.

    The Stumbling Giant

    Originally in 2007 after the release of iPhone, Nokia smartphones

    like Nokia N95 with Symbian OS outsold the iPhone and had a dominating

    62.5% market share in Q4 of 2007 ahead of Microsofts Windows mobile

    http://envisionip.com/blog/2012/07/19/530/

  • OS and RIMs BlackBerry. As the competition grew fierce in 2008,

    Apples iPhone 3G hit the market which started the rise of the new

    kind of smartphone within the cellphone space. As Nokia felt

    intimidated, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, CEO of Nokia, tried everything in

    his power to tackle this new threat but Nokias pie was being snatched

    away slowly. The graph below shows how Nokia was affected when Apple

    started manufacturing iPhones in 2008. But when the iPhone 3rd

    Generation phones hit the market with the new refined iOS operating

    system it quickly doubled the market share for Apple and reduced the

    Nokias share along with others. Nokia was still the market leader

    with a 40.8% market share in Q4 2008 with its new smartphone like

    Nokia 5800 Xpress music and Nokia E71 but was declining.

    In 2008, Nokia bought the Symbian operating system and the

    following year made it open source so that more & more apps could be

    developed for Symbian operating system. But this step couldnt turn

    the fortunes of Nokia as in 2009 their market share of Symbian fell to

    46.1% in Q4 2009 from 52.4% in Q4 2008. But in 2010 everything started

    to fall apart for Nokia as Google with its Android operating system

    along with Apple with the iOS started to eat into Nokias business,

    and the other Symbian makers including Samsung and Sony Ericsson

    decided to take up Android as their new operating system.

  • In mid-2010, Nokia was the only OEM to manufacture devices with

    the Symbian OS while they were contemplating to adapt to newer

    Operating Systems.

    WHAT WENT WRONG?

    We will take use the 3 primary lenses which enable the process to

    analyze where Nokia possibly went wrong. Nokia made choices, we feel,

    it shouldnt have and will note these in our analysis below.

    I) Strategy

    Symbian OS was created by Symbian Ltd., which was a joint venture

    between Psion, and phone manufacturers Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia.

    Symbion was the most popular smartphone OS on a global average till Q4

    2010 with Nokia having Symbian as the OS in its all flagship phones.

    In June 2008, Nokia acquired Symbian Ltd. under a decision to make the

    Symbian OS open-source platform so that more developers can use it to

    develop their mobile apps. In February 2010, it was officially made

    available as open source code. But it was a little too late as

    Android, which was already open-source and freely available, and iOS

    has already started to eat into Symbian market pie with their advanced

    platforms & a huge number of support applications on the smartphones.

  • On February 11, 2011 Nokia announced partnership with Microsoft and

    carry their OS i.e. Windows OS in their smartphones. A study in June

    2011 showed that over 39% of the mobile developers using Symbian had

    planned to abandon the platform for either Android or IOS. By June

    2011,, Nokia had made a deal with Accenture for Symbian based software

    development and support services through 2016 which also saw 2800 of

    Nokia employees moving base to Accenture.

    II) Technology

    Nokia was a pioneer of technology in mobiles and cellphones.

    Nokia came a long way to reach that state, but only due to aging staff

    and technology could not stand to the new wave of competition. Nokia.

    Nokia had the Mobira series from 1982-1990 which were very popular

    during its times. From 1990- 1999, Nokia sold the Original series of

    phones, which also saw the inclusion of a newly developed GSM

    technology. Nokia later went forward to production colour screen

    phones, digital camera featured phones and even music capable phones.

    Nokia also had a gaming series of phones which were selling like hot

    pancakes amongst teenagers. They indirectly took over Sonys walkman,

    Apples iPod and other related products market share. Nokia later had

    business series phones with push email and other corporate benefitting

    features.

  • Later on they used to Symbian OS and were literally on top

    of the world with their remarkably smart featured phones. But by this

    time, Nokia had reached the peak of its research and development

    cycles. What they needed to do was to usher in a revolutionary new

    technology to continue dominating the market after 2007. But this was

    brought in by a new breed of engineers working at Apple and Google,

    who came up with iOS and Android Operating Systems. Nokia still

    believed that it's Symbian OS was capable of fighting this decision

    but eventually realized it were not worth the fight and started

    looking for new OS partners. In 2009, Nokia developed MaeMo OS, which

    was later terminated in favor of Maemo OS. These OS was developed in-

    house and then handed over to a contractor for developing apps for

    them. Although initially it attracted developers, it lacked the charm

    iOS and Android had to offer. This was when Nokia decided to go out in

    the market to look for a partner for their amazing hardware devices.

    After their tie-up with Microsoft for its Mobile Platform OS Windows

    7.5 Mango, Nokia launched the Lumia series, which featured

    revolutionary hardware advancements. The Nokia Lumia 1020 had a

    staggering 41 MP Carl Zeiss camera. Lumia 610 featured NFC which is

    the top of the class wireless transfer technology. But by then Nokia

    was all stripped down of its glory. Nokia also launched the Asha set

    in India and other developing nations, which once were its

    strongholds, but they performed averagely.

  • It wasnt until January 25th, 2013 that Nokia announced it

    would stop shipping Symbian phones. By then Nokia was shipping only

    Windows OS based phones. Nokia had to train an entire division of

    people for the task such as writing Operating system level code to

    developing apps for it. In September, 2013, Microsoft announced it

    will be buying Nokias mobile business for $7.2 billion. This

    signifies the buyout of a failed company by a giant which caused it to

    fail in the first case.

    III) People

    We have mentioned above the various CEOs of Nokia and their

    valuable contribution to the company. In September 2010, it was

    announced that Elop would take Nokia's CEO position, replacing Olli-

    Pekka Kallasvuo, and becoming the first non-Finnish director in

    Nokia's history. On 11 March 2011 Nokia announced that it had paid

    Elop a $6 million signing bonus, compensation for lost income from

    his prior employer," on top of his $1.4 million annual salary. As soon

    as Stephen Elop took over he sent an internal memo to his employees

    which got leaked to the press. The memo dubbed as Burning platform

    was one of its kind and regarded as one of the most ridiculous

    corporate memo. Below is a glimpse of its content.

    There is a pertinent story about a man who was working on an oil

    platform in the North Sea. He woke up one night from a loud explosion, which suddenly

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olli-Pekka_Kallasvuohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olli-Pekka_Kallasvuo

  • set his entire oil platform on fire. In mere moments, he was surrounded by flames.

    Through the smoke and heat, he barely made his way out of the chaos to the platforms

    edge. When he looked down over the edge, all he could see were the dark, cold,

    foreboding Atlantic waters.

    As the fire approached him, the man had mere seconds to react. He could stand

    on the platform, and inevitably be consumed by the burning flames. Or, he could

    plunge 30 meters in to the freezing waters. The man was standing upon a burning

    platform, and he needed to make a choice.

    He decided to jump. It was unexpected. In ordinary circumstances, the man

    would never consider plunging into icy waters. But these were not ordinary times

    his platform was on fire. The man survived the fall and the waters. After he was

    rescued, he noted that a burning platform caused a radical change in his behaviour.

    We too, are standing on a burning platform, and we must determine how we are

    going to change our behaviour.

    Over the past few months, Ive shared with you what Ive heard from our

    shareholders, operators, developers, suppliers andyou. Now, Im going to share what

    Ive learned and what I have come to believe.

    I have learned that we are standing on a burning platform.

    And, we have more than one explosion we have multiple points of scorching

    heat that are fuelling a blazing fire around us.

    For example, there is intense heat coming from our competitors, more rapidly

    than we ever expected. Apple disrupted the market by redefining the smartphone and

    attracting developers to a closed, but very powerful ecosystem.

  • In 2008, Apples market share in the $300+ price range was 25 percent; by 2010

    it escalated to 61 percent. They are enjoying a tremendous growth trajectory with a

    78 percent earnings growth year over year in Q4 2010. Apple demonstrated that if

    designed well, consumers would buy a high-priced phone with a great experience and

    developers would build applications. They changed the game, and today, Apple owns the

    high-end range.

    And then, there is Android. In about two years, Android created a platform

    that attracts application developers, service providers and hardware manufacturers.

    Android came in at the high-end, they are now winning the mid-range, and quickly they

    are going downstream to phones under 100. Google has become a gravitational force,

    drawing much of the industrys innovation to its core.

    Lets not forget about the low-end price range. In 2008, MediaTek supplied

    complete reference designs for phone chipsets, which enabled manufacturers in the

    Shenzhen region of China to produce phones at an unbelievable pace. By some accounts,

    this ecosystem now produces more than one third of the phones sold globally taking

    share from us in emerging markets.

    While competitors poured flames on our market share, what happened at Nokia?

    We fell behind, we missed big trends, and we lost time. At that time, we thought we

    were making the right decisions; but, with the benefit of hindsight, we now find

    ourselves years behind.

    The first iPhone shipped in 2007, and we still dont have a product that is

    close to their experience. Android came on the scene just over 2 years ago, and this

    week they took our leadership position in smartphone volumes. Unbelievable.

    We have some brilliant sources of innovation inside Nokia, but we are not

    bringing it to market fast enough. We thought MeeGo would be a platform for winning

  • high-end smartphones. However, at this rate, by the end of 2011, we might have only

    one MeeGo product in the market.

    At the midrange, we have Symbian. It has proven to be non-competitive in

    leading markets like North America. Additionally, Symbian is proving to be an

    increasingly difficult environment in which to develop to meet the continuously

    expanding consumer requirements, leading to slowness in product development and also

    creating a disadvantage when we seek to take advantage of new hardware platforms. As

    a result, if we continue like before, we will get further and further behind, while

    our competitors advance further and further ahead.

    At the lower-end price range, Chinese OEMs are cranking out a device much

    faster than, as one Nokia employee said only partially in jest, the time that it

    takes us to polish a PowerPoint presentation. They are fast, they are cheap, and

    they are challenging us.

    And the truly perplexing aspect is that were not even fighting with the right

    weapons. We are still too often trying to approach each price range on a device-to-

    device basis.

    The battle of devices has now become a war of ecosystems, where ecosystems

    include not only the hardware and software of the device, but developers,

    applications, e-commerce, advertising, search, social applications, location-based

    services, unified communications and many other things. Our competitors arent taking

    our market share with devices; they are taking our market share with an entire

    ecosystem. This means were going to have to decide how we either build, catalyse or

    join an ecosystem.

    This is one of the decisions we need to make. In the meantime, weve lost

    market share, weve lost mind share and weve lost time.

  • On Tuesday, Standard & Poors informed that they will put our A long term

    and A-1 short term ratings on negative credit watch. This is a similar rating

    action to the one that Moodys took last week. Basically it means that during the

    next few weeks they will make an analysis of Nokia, and decide on a possible credit

    rating downgrade. Why are these credit agencies contemplating these changes? Because

    they are concerned about our competitiveness.

    Consumer preference for Nokia declined worldwide. In the UK, our brand

    preference has slipped to 20 percent, which is 8 percent lower than last year. That

    means only 1 out of 5 people in the UK prefer Nokia to other brands. Its also down

    in the other markets, which are traditionally our strongholds: Russia, Germany,

    Indonesia, UAE, and on and on and on.

    How did we get to this point? Why did we fall behind when the world around us

    evolved?

    This is what I have been trying to understand. I believe at least some of it

    has been due to our attitude inside Nokia. We poured gasoline on our own burning

    platform. I believe we have lacked accountability and leadership to align and direct

    the company through these disruptive times. We had a series of misses. We havent

    been delivering innovation fast enough. Were not collaborating internally.

    Nokia, our platform is burning.

    We are working on a path forward a path to rebuild our market leadership.

    When we share the new strategy on February 11, it will be a huge effort to transform

    our company. But, I believe that together, we can face the challenges ahead of us.

    Together, we can choose to define our future.

  • The burning platform, upon which the man found himself, caused the man to

    shift his behavior, and take a bold and brave step into an uncertain future. He was

    able to tell his story. Now, we have a great opportunity to do the same.

    Stephen.

    This memo though honest, demoralized many employees. It made them

    believe they are the reason why the company is where it is now. But

    this memo nowhere made it clear what the exact strategy would be. This

    memo also shows how irresponsible as a CEO Stephen Elop was and its

    effect on the company.

    Conspiracy Theory:

    Stephen Elops career has a reputation of either leaving soon

    enough or a takeover of the company he works in. He was CEO for Elop

    was a director of consulting for Lotus Development Corporation before

    becoming CIO for Boston Chicken in 1992,which filed for Chapter 11

    bankruptcy in 1998. In the same year, he joined Macromedia's Web/IT

    department holding senior positions, like being CEO from January 2005

    for three months before they were brought by Adobe Systems in April

    2005.

    He was the president of worldwide field operations at Adobe, and

    resigned in June 2006, after which he became the COO of Juniper

    Networks from January 2007 2008. From Jan 2008 - Sep 2010, Stephen

    Elop was employed at Microsoft and was heading the Business Division.

  • His work domain included Microsoft Office and Microsoft Dynamics line

    of products.

    He left Microsoft in September 2010 and joined Nokia, becoming

    the first non-Finnish CEO in its entire history. He made decisions of

    moving towards Microsofts Mobile platform and led the company into

    the abyss. During Elop's tenure, Nokia annual revenues fell 40% from

    41.7 Billion Euros per year to 25.3 Billion Euros per year. Nokia

    profits fell 92% from 2.4 Billion Euros per year to 188 Million Euros

    per year. Nokia handset sales fell 40% from 456 million units per year

    to 274 million units per year. Nokia's A ranking among all three

    ratings agencies was downgraded repeatedly all through his tenure with

    no upgrades, and when he left office all three ratings agencies rated

    Nokia as junk. Nokia's Fortune Global 500 ranking was 120th largest

    business on the planet when Elop started and by the time he left Nokia

    it was at 274th position. The sale of the handset unit to Microsoft

    which was later approved by Nokia shareholders and the remaining

    revenues will mean that Nokia would be kicked out of the Fortune

    Global 500. Nokias share prices which were 7.12 Euros on the day Elop

    was hired and dropped to 1.44 Euros, down by 81%. They rose by a small

    margin once rumors of Microsofts acquisition plans reached the

    market.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Officehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Dynamics

  • Elops Decisions

    In February 2011, Elop showcased a new approach for Nokia,

    shifting its smartphone policy to Microsoft's Windows Phone, which

    also included the discontinuation of both of their in-house mobile

    operating systems. The phase-out of Symbian was to be carried out

    during the next years, expecting it to be finalized by 2013. All

    programs for others devices were terminated immediately. The first

    Nokia Windows Phone smartphone was sold in Nov 2011, the Nokia Lumia

    800, was made in the form of a device design identically similar to

    the Nokia N9, the first MeeGo mobile.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbianhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_Lumia_800http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_Lumia_800http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N9

  • Elop stated the reason for switching to Windows instead of

    Android: "the single most important word is 'differentiation'.

    Entering the Android environment late, we knew we would have a hard

    time differentiating."

    During his tenure, Elop faced vocal criticism from both industry

    specialists and employees. In 2011, Elop announced that some 11,000

    employees would have to be laid off as part of a plan to "restructure"

    Nokia's business, and in June 2012 it was announced that further

    10,000 layoffs were in order and that many services would have to be

    closed down due to budget cuts. Experts started to speculate that Elop

    could be a rouge agent, whose mission was to prepare Nokia for a

    future acquisition by Microsoft. When confronted with this theory by

    an anonymous attendee at the 2011 Mobile World Congress, Elop denied

    the speculation stating, "The obvious answer is, no. But, however, I

    am very sensitive to the perception and awkwardness of that situation.

    We made sure that the entire management team was involved in the

    process; everyone on the management team believed this was the best

    decision," referring to Nokia's adoption of Microsoft's Windows Phone

    operating system.

    Speculators say that Elop indirectly prepared Nokia for

    Microsofts acquisition and intentionally devalued the companys

    assets and image. More fuel was added to the fire, when Microsoft

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_World_Congress

  • announced a signing bonus of 18.8 million. Ironically, both the deals

    were signed on the same day which further made investors furious.

    Process Failure:

    After analyzing through the 3 lenses, we feel Nokia failed as a

    whole and not due to an individual aspect. Life is a cycle, and only

    thing that is permanent is change. Nokia had reached the peak of its

    glory and the only way from there seemed to be downward unless they

    changed their processes. Change did come but was late and futile.

    Nokia had its ups and downs and now soon enough we hope it will

    recapture its glory. Another outcome of this entire debacle was some

    of the Nokia employees leaving the company to create another which

    would produce the quality of devices with more popular operating

    systems. Although this is just the beginning only time can tell us

    what lays ahead for Nokia.

  • Conclusion

    The research in this paper digs into the role of Stephen Elop as

    a contributing factor in the failure of Nokia as a company. The

    conspiracy theory states that even though Stephen Elop came from

    Microsoft to Nokia but against all the ethical rules of

    professionalism but he continued to make decisions which were

    beneficial for Microsoft. The argument is supported by the facts and

    statistical data given in the paper on how Nokia went on a downward

    spiral after Stephen Elop joined as the CEO. His decisions of only

    carrying the Windows operating system in all of their phones &

    abandoning all other operating systems did no good for the companys

    performance in the business. His decision of not going for the Android

    OS after Symbian while the other mobile carriers such as Samsung, Sony

    Ericson did, eventually led to Nokia losing a major market share. The

    sales of Nokia dropped over the period of his tenure which eventually

    led Nokia being sold to Microsoft. Our research in this paper digs

    deeper into the role of Stephen Elop in the downfall of Nokia. We

    wonder what would have been if Nokia would have embraced Android as it

    is the biggest smartphone operating system in the world by far. Soon

    after being sold to Microsoft, ousted employees are on the look for

    investors to manufacture same quality hardware devices with a variety

    of Operating Systems other than Windows.
