Summary:
"The conventional view of
Jobs
is that he was half-genius, half-jerk, an irascible and selfish
leader
who slighted friends and family alike. How did a young man so
reckless
and arrogant that he was exiled from the company he founded become the most effective
visionary
business
leader
of our time? Schlender and Tetzeli tell the story of a human being who wrestled with his failings and learned to maximize his strengths over time. Brent knew
Jobs
personally for 25 years and draws upon his many interviews with him in writing the book. The book provides rich context about the technology revolution we all have lived through, and the ways in which
Jobs
changed our world.
Jobs
's astounding success at Apple was far more complicated than simply picking the right products: he became more patient, he learned to trust his inner circle, and discovered the importance of growing the company incrementally rather than only shooting for dazzling game-changing products"--Provided by publisher.
