> I'm not questioning your judgement of Steve's personality. But it surprises me that person like Steve can be so successful. Moreover, how did he recruit and manage so many world class developers and designers? Because he attracted insecure people who would work their asses of on his ideas? That's my theory. Reading about Steve Jobs, one can find he exhibited psychopath traits, and it's known this kind of personality fascinates some people, who are then willing to follow almost blindly, even if they are shouted to or treated badly (in fact, this reinforces the bond). Just look up how many famous psychopaths in jail receive letters from all around world of people who worship them, would marry them, etc.
