Those facts alone arent enough.  Nokia was a dinosaur and it was in meltdown when he arrived.  If they hadnt done what they did, it would now be bankrupt.

No, it wasn't. Its featurephone business was healthy and in fact growing. Cool =/= healthy.

He sunk all his existing healthy businesses via the Burning Platform memo and pipeline cancellations, well before any new products could have made up the revenue. True inaction would have given them far more time to let the new business become profitable.
