"Executive Leadership Team" is such an interesting phrase. Never in several years inside Apple spanning Steve Jobs and Tim Cook heard any such condescending nonsense.
I believe it's because they truly didn't think that way.
- geekone 5mo agoXCOM (Executive Committee) was my least favorite at one of the soulless corps i worked at years ago.
- dcrazy 5mo agoTim Cook has referred to the “E-Team” in many earnings calls. I am guessing that consists of the SVPs who are above the horizontal line on https://www.apple.com/leadership/ https://www.apple.com/leadership/
- aiscoming 5mo agothat horizontal line is hillarious. I can imagine the discussions with the designers "just put the fucking line there, I dont care how it looks, its important to separate the two sets of people"

- Barbing 5mo agoIf you delete the first one but leave the line above “Board of Directors“, would you mind it? (Edit - I wouldn’t have minded either line, at first glance on mobile, curious if it’s an “all bad” situation for you)
- aiscoming 5mo agoI personally dont mind it, but apple is famous for ruthlesly removing decorative design and trying to make everything a slab of color, and this thin line goes so much against this
- jjtheblunt 5mo agothat's plausible, since i never listened to earnings calls, and since external communications might take different form than internal, i bet.
- smugma 5mo agoET is frequently used to describe Apple’s Executive Team.
