? The challenge of managing multinational operations, notably the difficulty of a European enterprise
being so strongly reliant on its Chinese facilities (arms-length communications, cultural mismatches
etc.)
? Structural issues: how best to organise (divisionalise) to ensure equal/appropriate priority is given to

? Most fundamentally, what is (should be) Nokia’s mission and future vision?
