Who Killed Nokia?
Nokia executives attempted to explain
its fall from the top of the smartphone pyramid
with
three
factors:
1)
that
Nokia
was
technically
inferior
to
Apple,
2)
that
the
company
was
complacent and 3) that its leaders
didn't see the disruptive iPhone coming.
It
has
also
been
argued
that
it
was
none
of
the
above.
Nokia
lost
the
smartphone
battle
because of divergent shared fears among
the company's middle and top managers which led to
company-wide inertia that left it
powerless to respond to Apple's game.
Based on the findings of an
in-depth investigation and 76 interviews with top
and middle
managers, engineers
and external
experts,
the researchers
discovered
a
culture
of fear
due
to
temperamental leaders and that
frightened middle managers were scared of telling
the truth.
The
fear that froze the company came from two places.
First, the company's top managers
had
a
terrifying
reputation.
Some
members
of
Nokia's
board
and
top
management
were
described
as
“extremely
temperamental”
and
they
regularly
shouted
at
people
“at
the
top
of
their
lungs”.
It
was
very
difficult
to
tell
them
things
they
didn't
want
to
hear.
Secondly,
top
managers were afraid of the external
environment and not meeting their quarterly
targets, which
also impacted how they
treated middle managers.
Top managers thus made middle managers
afraid of disappointing them. Middle managers
were told that they were not ambitious
enough to meet top managers' goals.
Fearing
the
reactions
of
top
managers,
middle
managers
remained
silent
or
provided
optimistic,
filtered information. Thus, middle managers
directly lied to top management.
Worse, a culture of status
inside Nokia made everyone want to hold onto
vested power for
fear of resources
being allocated elsewhere if they delivered bad
news or showed that they were
not bold
or ambitious enough to undertake challenging
assignments.
Beyond
verbal
pressure,
top
managers
also
applied
pressure
for
faster
performance
in
personnel
selection.
This
led
middle
managers
to
over
promise
and
under
deliver.
One
middle
manager told us that
“you can get resources by promis
ing
something earlier, or promising a lot.
It's sales work.”
While modest
fear might be healthy for motivation, abusing it
can be like overusing a drug,
which
risks generating harmful side effects. To reduce
this risk, leaders should coordinate with
the
varied emotions
of
the
staff.
Nokia's
top
managers
should
have encouraged
safe
dialogue,
internal
coordination and feedback to understand the true
emotion in the organization.

Communication Failure
The
meaning
of
“communication”
goes
a
lot
deeper
than
people
often
think.
Communication
is
about
conceiving,
sending,
receiving,
and
interpreting
messages
as
well
as
confirming
reception
of
these
messages.
A
failure
at
any
point
in
this
chain
can
result
in
ineffective
communication.
Ineffective
communication
can
be
disastrous.
There
is
a
famous
story
of
a
British
Army
Commander
who sent the
message “Send reinforcements, we're going to
advance.” back to his
Command Center,
through a long chain of subordinates. When the
message finally reached the
Command
Center, it had “mutated” to become
--
“Send three and four
-pence,
we're going to a
dance.” The
reinforcements never arrived.
You can
demonstrate this same principle, albeit on a less
dramatic scale, by trying to play
Chinese Whispers with more than 20
people. It is highly unlikely the same message you
started
with will be the one you end
with.
In
a
business,
there
are
three
main
types
of
communication
failure.
Each
has
its
own
indicative signs.
?The first type
is known as allocative failure. This occurs when a
firm is not gathering enough
intelligence about its market or (most
often), the information is not reaching the right
points. The
firm will not be allocating
resources in step with the shifts in demand. If
demand is rising but the
firm
is
suffering
from
allocative
communication
failure,
then
stocks
will
fall
and
there
will
be
understaffing. If the
inverse happens, there will be a surplus of stocks
and overstaffing.
?The
second
type
is
executive
failure,
where
communication
to
trigger
specific
events/actions
is
either
late,
lacking
or
in
error.
The
symptoms
of
this
are
a
general
loss
of
direction
in the company or departments, a loss of co-
ordination and an increase in complaints
from customers as things happen late or
not at all.
?The final type is human failure. This
occurs when the general culture of a business or
the
relationships
between
particular
individuals
or
departments
do
not
foster
effective
communication.
This
leads
to
alienated
staff,
an
increase
in
staff
turnover,
an
increase
in
absenteeism
and
general
frustration
among
staff.
Creativity,
especially
that
which
takes
place
across departmental
boundaries, is likely to suffer hugely as team
synergy slips.

Habits of Highly Effective
Communicators
It's no secret that good leaders are
also good communicators. Indeed, communication and
leadership
are
inextricably
tied.
How
can
you
galvanize,
inspire
or
guide
others
if
you
don't
communicate
in
a
clear,
credible
and
authentic
way?
Here
are
5
essential
communication
practices of
effective leaders:
1. Mind the say-do gap. Trust is the
bedrock of effective leadership
–
your behavior is your
single
greatest
mode
of
communication,
and
it
must
be
congruent
with
what
you
say.
If
your
actions
don't align with your words, you are storing up
trouble for the future.
2.
Make
the
complex
simple.
Effective
leaders
distill
complex
thoughts
and
strategies
into
simple,
memorable
terms
that
colleagues
and
customers
can
grasp
and
act
upon.
The
most
important
thing
is
to
clarify
what
you
want
to
say,
look
out
for
technical
jargon
and
avoid
business speak, which add complexity.
Say what you mean in as few words as possible.
3.
Find
your
own
voice.
Use
language
that's
distinctly
your
own;
let
your
values
come
through in your communication. Correct
use of language and grammar are important, of
course,
but don't become overly fixated
on eloquence for eloquence's sake; concentrate on
being distinct
and real. People want
real, people respect real, people follow real.
4. Be visible
Visibility is about letting your key stakeholders
get a feel for who you are and
what you
care about. Don't hide behind a computer and only
interact with people electronically
–
see
them
face
to
face
and voice
to
voice,
and
interact
with
them
in
a
real,
substantial
way.
In
today's
environment, where people are often burned out,
it's important for employees to have a
personal connection with you and the
work you believe in. Show the people that work for
you
that you're engaged and that you
care about them and their work.
5. Listen with your eyes as
well as your ears. Effective communication is a
two-way process,
and good leaders know
how to ask good questions, and then listen with
both their eyes and their
ears.
Because
you
are
in
a
position
of
authority,
others
may
be
reluctant
to
express
their
real
opinions to you
directly. You won't always get direct feedback, so
you need to also be able to read
between the lines and look for the non-
verbal cues.

but they have to form
part of a much larger teamwork effort. You will
not build
teamwork by “retreating” as a
group for a couple of days each year, instead you
need to think of
team building as
something you do every single day.
? Form teams to
solve real work issues and to improve real work
processes. Provide training
in
systematic methods so the team expends its energy
on the project, not on trying to work out
how to work together as a team to
approach the problem.
? Hold department meetings
to review projects and progress, to obtain broad
input, and to
coordinate shared work
processes. If there is friction between team
members, examine the work
processes
they mutually own
—
the
problem is not usually their personalities;
instead, it is often
the fact that the
team members haven't agreed on how they will
deliver a product or service, or
the
steps required to get something done.
? Build fun and shared
occasions into the organization's agenda
—
hold pot luck lunches,
take the team to a sporting event,
sponsor dinners at a local restaurant, go hiking
or go to an
amusement
park.
Hold
a
monthly
company
meeting,
sponsor
sports
teams
and
encourage
cheering team
fans.
? Use ice
breakers and teamwork exercises at meetings
—
these help team members get to
know each other, share details about
each others lives, and have a laugh together.
? Celebrate
team successes publicly. There are many ways you
could do this, for instance by
buying
everyone the same T-shirt or hat, putting team
member names in a draw for company
merchandise and gift certificates. The
only thing limiting you is your imagination.
If you do the
types of teamwork building listed above, you'll be
amazed at the progress you
will make in
creating a teamwork culture, a culture that
enables individuals to contribute more
than they ever thought possible
—
together.

A Teamwork Game
A team of about 35
employees had come together for a team building
event. They were a
young, bright and
enthusiastic team. However, one of their chief
problems was the fact that they
wouldn't share information or solutions
with each other, and the team leader thought they
were
too
focused
on
themselves
and
not
on
the
team.
As
a
result,
she
brought
them
all
into
the
cafeteria. All of the tables and chairs
had been stored away, and fun decorations and
hundreds of
different colored balloons
had been placed around the room.
In the center of the room
was a big box of balloons that hadn't been blown
up yet. The team
leader instructed
everybody to pick a balloon, blow it up, and write
their name on it, but they
had to be
careful not to burst the balloon.
Although they were given a
second chance if their first balloon popped, they
were out of the
game the second time
round. In the end, about 30 team members wrote
their names without
their balloons
popping. They were then asked to leave the room
and, after five minutes, the team
leader brought them back in and asked
them to find the balloon with their name on it
amongst
the hundreds of other balloons
in the room. After 15 minutes of searching, no one
had found
their balloon, and the team
were told that they were then going to move on to
the third round of
the activity.
In this round,
each team member was instructed to find any
balloon with a name on it and
then give
that balloon to the person whose name was on it.
Within two minutes, everybody had
their
own balloon. The team leader summarized the
activity thus:
“
We are much
more efficient
when we are willing to
share with each other and much better at problem
solving when we are
working together,
not individually.
”
Sometimes,
members of teams create obstacles by focusing
solely on their own pursuits and
goals.
Every member of the team should ask themselves on
a regular basis what they are doing
and
what they can do for the team.

How Google Continues to Keep
Employees Happy
Working for Google is a dream of many,
not just because of what this company has achieved
in the last 15 years, but because of
its enviable work culture. With about 37,000
employees in 40
countries, you might
wonder how Google maintains a motivating work
experience throughout its
entire
company.
Working for Google comes with perks
that most other organizations can't provide --
bowling
alleys, free haircuts, gym
memberships, and shuttles to and from work. The
company's secret to
success is putting
the same amount of time and effort into keeping
employees happy as it does
into
innovating products.
Back when the company was just a start-
up, co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin had the
goal of making Google a place the most
talented people wanted to work at. Their idea was
simple:
creating a work culture that
keeps employees happy will motivate them to do
their best and will
keep them loyal to
the company.
“
It's
less
about
the
aspiration
to
be
No.
1
in
the
world,
and
more
that
we
want
our
employees and future ones to love it
here, because that's what's going to make us
successful,
”
said
Karen May, the Vice President of people
development at Google.
Google
also
makes
its
employees
want
to
work
because
managers
provide
tasks
that
are
inspiring and challenging. Every
employee at Google has the opportunity to spend
20% of his or
her working time on a
project they choose. This freedom takes employees
out of their routine
and away from the
mundane tasks that often make workers feel
uninspired about their jobs.
Lastly, Google shows each
employee just how important he or she is to the
company. Each
employee, regardless of
her spot on the totem pole, has an influence on
how Google performs.
“
If you value people, and
care about them as whole people, one thing you do
is giving them
a voice, and you really
listen,
”
May
said.
Google
does just that by hosting employee forums every
Friday, where they discuss the 20
most-
asked questions. Employees have access to all
company information, adding a sense of trust,
and employees and leaders work together
to solve problems.
