Jobs got fired from apple.
Edit: Downvotes for simply stating a fact?
- austinshea 9y agoApple is an electronics company.
- kronos29296 9y agoAnd then got rehired because Apple needed him
- krallja 9y agoThat is why he was absent.
- microtherion 9y agoPrecisely. And then he was brought back, and in retrospect, many of his skills the second time around (charisma, design instinct, product focus) were the same that he had brought to Apple originally, but in the meantime, he had learned to temper his worst personal flaws (largely by learning to trust and listen to a small group of people who could counteract them).
- davidf18 9y agoI saw Ed Catmull (Pixar) give a post-Jobs death talk on youtube about how Jobs had completely changed during his 10 year hiatus and was far more empathic.
- j_s 9y agoAny chance there is a recording of this available online?
- ghostly_s 9y agoVery interested in this as well. Parent says it was on Youtube? Edit: I imagine it's this interview at AllThingsD[1]. Ed jumps into this topic right off the bat. 1. https://youtu.be/U8kH5eZdIqA https://youtu.be/U8kH5eZdIqA
- hamxiaoz 9y agoIn his book "Creativity, Inc" there is also a chapter "The Steve we knew" talking about this.
- rasz 9y agoso empathetic he didnt want to give Pixar employees even a cent of equity before the IPO.
- anindha 9y agoI'd say down votes because it wasn't clear whether Apple would have fallen if Jobs remained. He pushed the same vision when he came back as when he was fired.
