Any business major should read this memo from the Nokia CEO to its employees. It's a step that not many CEO's are willing to take, admitting that their company is on the wrong path and that drastic change is needed.
Message from Nokia CEO to Employees
It has been rumored for some time that Nokia would join forces with the Windows Phone 7 platform. For those of you who have not kept on top of smartphone standings, Nokia was the previous market leader and is now having its turf threatened by high end (Apple), mid-range (Android) and low-end (Chinese) competitors. Nokia has alot to gain by adopting a competitive and unique phone operating system/ecosystem and Windows Phone 7 needs the huge user base and brand name that Nokia can offer.
Such a partnership would have implications to change the smartphone arena and bring both Nokia and Windows Phone 7 up to snuff with Apple and Android. Only time will tell but for the sake of both companies i hope a merger is in the works. After all the current CEO of Nokia is a former Softie!
Nokia/Windows Phone 7 partnership likely to be announced this Friday!
Best Regards,
-Antonio Esposito
