Question #1
Faced with significant operational failures in Germany and the UK, will Bergman impose the necessary central controls to prevent future blow-ups, or will she prioritize preserving the decentralized model that has historically fueled growth?

Question #3
When navigating cyclical weakness in core building markets, will Bergman prioritize protecting short-term margins through aggressive cost-cutting, or will she continue to invest heavily in the long-term green transition strategy, even at the risk of near-term profitability?
