emakinen writes: Former chaiman Jorma Ollila brought Nokia great success. But did he also bring the company down? The former phone giantâ(TM)s current chairman Risto Siilasmaa tells Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat what he witnessed as a new member of the board. Ollilaâ(TM)s repeated fits of rage maintained an atmosphere of fear, which Siilasmaa views as one of the reasons why the mobile phone business collapsed. Questioning was forbidden, information on the ultimate causes of problems was kept under wraps, and those who posed difficult questions were branded as mischief-makers, Siilasmaa says.
