The leadership failure called Galaxy Note 7

Samsung stopped production and sales of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphone, which should have been its main new product for this Christmas. It happened a month after the launch due to the phone's battery overheating. Overheating was, however, not the main problem. Many phones actually exploded and caused injuries or damage to their users' property.

Speculation arose immediately about the cause of the problem. Most experts talk about the phone's design being too curvy or a fundamental defect or defects in the battery. However, according to fastcompany.com, the destruction of the Galaxy Note 7 was caused mainly due to a leadership failure.
