The answer? “I really blame the board,” said Sculley, who was recruited from Pepsi in 1983 to bring order to Apple – and Jobs.
So much for the buck stopping at the CEO. At least he shows more humility in the end.
Sculley’s biggest regret? “I feel most badly, though, [because] after 10 years, I was at the company, I wanted to go back to New York where I was from. Why I didn’t go to Steve Jobs and say, ‘Steve, let’s figure out how you can come back and lead your company.’ I didn’t do that, it was a terrible mistake on my part. I can’t figure out why I didn’t have the wisdom to do that. But I didn’t. And as life has it, shortly after that, I was fired.”
