Apple and Jobs
There has been quite some talk everywhere about how Steve Jobs is dying and all such. When spurts of these news come through, the Apple stock gets hammered and for no other plausible reason.
I am not buying that logic at all. Infact Fortune did a cover story on the Apple story with a focus on their COO Tim Cook. I think it was a nice article. The role of Jobs has always been of a leader. Here is a nice perspective on Jobs by Kevin Kelleher at GigaOm.
Whatever said and done, I think Jobs did a great job at re-building Apple and Pixar and I am sure the team at both these places will take the firms to greater heights even if Jobs steps back, which I reckon he has already started to. I feel so about these firms as they are solidly entrenched in the foundations of innovation.
