Apple under Tim Cook


now i've gotten on shock of today's tragic news, want myself apple fine without steve because tim 1 chose, remember john sculley chosen steve…

steve not average ceo, , that's made apple not average company. college dropout. never finished higher education. tim on other hand finished mba @ duke , totally by-the-books ceo. if @ keynote yesterday , listen earning calls, can tell tim man or numbers , economics - , not man of arts or creative genius.

know, know, having artistic sense not selection criteria ceo. however, apple is company of liberal arts , creative genius! they're not regular company. want quote steve here:

quote defines apple @ core, , why it's successful. music industry sucked, steve changed itunes + ipods. successful, apple under steve didn't stay still. changed phones again iphone. after iphone sells millions , still selling millions - bam, out comes ipad. no matter how successful apple got, never stood still. moved onto next wonderful thing.

know, when steve left apple first time, years ahead of competition. looking beast. happened? stood still , microsoft caught up. take @ radical new products came out in sculley's reign. that's right - absolutely nothing. ceo came in @ best time when mac os years ahead of windows 1.0 , company worth more microsoft, still managed drive apple near bankruptcy in few years.

people may think it's absurd apple can fall given second valuable company in world right now, don't realize apple in similar position 15 years ago! when steve left, apple looking today - being years ahead of competition , being innovator.

apple not company makes cheap things. make expensive things. how people buy expensive things? evolving - making sure expensive things different cheap replacements. company succeed such business model, man in charge must have phenomenal insight , creativity. john sculley great ceo normal standards. did pepsi, did pepsi need new products keep people buying them? no! trust me, if sculley became ceo of apple in 2009 when iphone selling hotcakes, wouldn't bother making ipad because apple doing great. not steve. took gamble , made ipad. sculley's mindset ruined apple within few years.

1 thing's sure. apple has been led success man without bachelor degree. apple successful because they're innovating , leader man doesn't sit on achievements. tim radically different steve. tim great ceo normal companies. has mba. knows economics. remind of - nailed it: john sculley.

know is, last time apple run by-the-books ceo tim, went bankrupt. didn't happen overnight because steve left on such high note - happened because stood still. @ time when google rapidly advancing , innovating, apple standing still kill faster can imagine.

haruhi's sake, hope i'm wrong , tim can keep innovating, let me 1 thing - if 2015, apple's main product line still consist of macs, iphone 8 , ipad 6 - die. that's how died 15 years ago.


tim seem 'crazy one'? uhh...nope.
