The legacy a true leader would like to leave behind is that we would like to make a difference in the quality of life of the people...
We lost a legendary leader on 5th oct,2011 who does not require any introduction..Mr.Steve Jobs
The backbone of Apple Corporation who made so many remarkable changes in technology and brought a revolution in gadgets..let it be i-pods,i-phones or i-pads...
Steve Jobs who used to think differently and who have an edge above all...
He made digital technology made familiar among the masses,his elegant products captured The world wide attention..
The noteworthy products launched by Steve Jobs are :-
1.Apple II Personal Computer-june 1977
2.Apple Lisa II Personal Computer-this was name after job's daughter..it didnt succeed because it was very expensive..1983
3.The Apple Macintosh-this introduced the graphic user interface to the world in year 1984 and marked the beginning of personal computers and inspired the upcoming of other operating systems.
Due to some ineffective cost operations,he hired John Sculley from Pepsi..but While Jobs was a persuasive and charismatic director for Apple, some of his employees from that time described him as an erratic and temperamental manager. An industry-wide sales slump towards the end of 1984, caused a deterioration in Jobs's working relationship with Sculley as well as layoffs and disappointing sales performance. An internal power struggle developed between Jobs and Sculley..After battling with CEO John Sculley for control of the company in 1985, jobs resigned Apple Corporation n den return again in 1997..
In between jobs brought the graphics group later named pixar and made many changes in animations and graphics of many holloywood movies..
and when he joined Apple Corporation again in 1997 and in near 2000's and after that came i-pods,i-phones, and i-pads which we all are familiar with...
and you people probably know more than me...
One of Jobs greatest accomplishment was to combine things in ascetically pleasing ways. For instance, the iphone is a: phone, mini-computer, camera, video recorder, and organizer. And if we include apps, then it is so much more - a translator, dictionary, cook book, game console, etc. It also looks great. To do this required incredible creativity. He was a genius. He will be missed...
