Reviews

Doz and Wilson's cognition-organization-relationships-emotion (CORE) framework serves to construct a convincing explanation for Nokia's dramatic change of fortunes during the early 21st century. Their book will become an indispensable reference for the study of managerial responses to technological disruption. * Robert Burgelman, Edmund W Littlefield Professor of Management, Stanford Graduate School of Business * Ringtone is an eminently readable and incisive account of the dramatic rise and radical collapse of the Nokia mobile handset business. Its analytics provide valuable lessons well beyond both the case and the field of business strategy. * John Zysman, Professor of Political Science, University of California, Berkeley * The Authors dig beyond generally accepted wisdom to show that Nokia DID understand all the challenges ahead but crucially lacked the ability to implement the changes required to transition from an entrepreneurial hardware company to an internet platform provider. The rigorous analysis and explanation offer valuable lessons to everyone. * Andrea Cuomo, Executive Vice President, Advanced Systems Technology, STMicroelectronics * This carefully crafted account of the rise and fall of Nokia provides academics and practitioners alike a clear account of the antecedents of corporate success and also failure. By showcasing the enablers and disablers of this once powerful company readers can perhaps learn to achieve the elusive goal of building organizations that last! * Ranjay Gulati, Jaime and Josefina Chua Tiampo Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School * Doz and Wilson offer a sharp and insightful analysis of the rise and fall of Nokia. Doz's long-term involvement with Nokia is reflected in the key contribution of the book - a captivating account of the collapse of Nokia's mobile phone business that combines environmental explanations such as creative destruction with a reflection of strategic decisions made at key turning points. A must read for anyone interested in Nokia's recent history. * Eero Vaara, Professor of Organization and Management, Aalto University School of Business * An insightful analysis of a company I thought I knew well. If only Nokia's leadership had had this knowledge earlierbut as we know, this is never the case! Two key takeaways: there is always a human and human relationships in the center and secondly, navigating complexity is of paramount importance going forward. Today more than ever. * Antti Herlin, Chairman of Kone Corporation *
