Against All Odds Zusammenfassung

Against All Odds: Leading Nokia from Near Catastrophe to Global Success Jorma Ollila

In this compelling memoir, Nokia's legendary CEO Jorma Ollila presents a riveting account of the inner workings of the company that created the global mobile revolution. CEO from 1992 to 2006, Ollila led Nokia from near catastrophe to become the world's leading mobile phone manufacturer. He built a company where visionary thinking and courageous decisions were combined with exceptional creativity and first-rate engineering, leading to phenomenal growth.

Follow Ollila's personal and professional journey, where you'll learn about the fine line between stratospheric success and disastrous failure. His stories are filled with lessons about the nature of leadership, the importance of shared values, and the need for strategic thinking.

Ollila offers a uniquely clear picture of life as a CEO, with many insights into how business is conducted at the highest levels. He is especially upfront about working with his executive and management teams as well as encounters with figures such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and George Soros. He offers poignant as well as illuminating stories of hair-raising risks and huge successes, but also of poor judgment and bad decision-making.

Against All Odds Bewertungen

A surprisingly engrossing memoir first published in Finland in 2013 but just now translated into English.
-- Bloomberg (Justin Fox)

An unlikely tale of how a group of provincial Finns changed communications and the world . . . Ollila pulls no punches on how and why Nokia fell from grace . . . Against All Odds is a unique tale and Ollila's way of telling it is equally left field.
-- Financial Times (Nic Fildes)

Finnish edition selected as one of 2013's most fascinating books by Finland Pictorial magazine!

A well-written book that reflects both the rapid ascent of success and the agony of profit warnings...the book sparks conversation of Nokia's rise and of its descent - and like all good autobiographies, also of the personality of the author.
-- Savonia Messages newspaper, Finland

Ollila prepared his autobiography for ten years. Journalist Harri Saukkomaa has turned it into an entertaining story in the strongest possible bestseller style. This biography is a meticulously polished diamond.
-- Helsinki Messages newspaper (Unto Hamalainen)

Ollila has a lot to say about leadership theories, personnel management, organizational structures, and other things that had to do with developing Nokia into the kind of company it was in its heyday - known for its devoted employees and innovative products. This eloquent and concise book can be recommended for anyone interested in business leaders and biographies in general - but also for those interested in these topics on a theoretical level.
-- The Book Mind blog, Finland

Great reading and good insight into Nokia's years before the countdown.
-- Tagmania (Tuomo Soini)

The book is actually quite exciting to read.
-- Wizzit Magazine (Matti Mattila)

The book is very good and I recommend it.... And of course, the book has a lot to offer all those interested in the management.
-- Pauli Forman, Director of Working Life Services, Keva

The book is very well-written and a first-rate professional work, which makes the book very readable.
-- Paavo Vasala, Chairman, Wasala Communication

Like reading a detective story.
-- Talking About Leadership blog (Seija Telaranta)

Ollila and Saukkomaa's book will be undoubtedly be one of Finland's economic history classics. That's why it is worth reading even now.
-- Eeva-Leena Vaahtio, Doctor of Social Sciences
