Nokia's CEO faces challenges in maintaining the company's leading market position. Nokia plans to use Windows Phone as its platform through a partnership with Microsoft. This may help Nokia regain lost market share by leveraging Microsoft's ecosystem and lower costs compared to developing an in-house system. Nokia also reorganized its structure to speed innovation and better compete against rivals. If Windows Phone can build out an ecosystem and compete with established OSes, it may help Nokia's WP7 phones dominate the smartphone market.
