In their new book, “Becoming Steve Jobs: The Evolution of a Reckless Upstart Into a Visionary Leader”, Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli debunk this myth. Get The Red Out Registration is Open! Click the image at left for information and the registration form. After getting fired from Apple, Steve Jobs “had the good luck to experience, at Pixar, a strong collaborative culture.” When he returned to Apple, "Steve Jobs 2.0" ran a collaborative executive team and “Apple’s resurrection was a team effort”. Steve’s legacy is not one of a singular genius instead it is someone who developed a team of leaders “who are rigorous, collaborative, and deeply open-minded. They will follow their noses and not look back. That is a big part of the real legacy they have inherited.” There’s Still Time to Get Registered for Burg Fest! This Fast Company article (8 min read) is an enlightening look at Steve and the Apple's surprisingly collaborative culture. Click on the image above for forms and many more details.
