Аннотация

"Kuidas leiti ja kaotati Soome Nokia? Kuidas saavutati hiilgav edu, mida kadestas kogu maailm, ja miks sellest ilma jäädi? Jorma Ollila oli 1992–2006 Nokia tegevjuht. 1990-ndate algul pani ta kõik mängu, et Nokia päästa. Firmast sai uus vaieldamatu konkurent mobiiltelefonide turu liidri kohale. Sai alguse võimatu edu lugu. Kuid mõne aja pärast muutus edu Nokiale ohuks ja koormaks. Ning konkurendid kasutasid nõrkushetke kohe valusasti ära. Jorma Ollila kirjeldab oma raamatus sügavuti Nokia arengut: eduka läbilöögini jõudmist ja kriise, tõusude ja laskumistega mägiteed ‒ ning kõva tööd, mida tuli teha selle ettevõtte juhtimiseks. „Võimatu edu“ on ühtlasi ka omapärane lugu mehest, kellest sai Nokia juht, kuigi temast pidi saama füüsik või majandusteadlane: „Olin astunud mägiteele, ja ma ei osanud ette kujutadagi, kui hirmuäratavad on selle tõusud ja laskumised.“"
