It's not about Jobs' creativity or industrial design acumen. Other people provide him with inspiring designs. It's not about Jobs' manner of motivating people. Other executives can be hard asses too. It's not about Jobs' ability to see opportunities for new products. He's had his share of losers. No. The thing that Jobs contributes is leadership. People will follow his orders. Maybe because they want to. Maybe because he's rich and powerful. Maybe because they think he's right and smart, whether or not it's really true. Jobs can make or brake other people at Apple. That's the difference. Other executives just run around in political circles. Jobs doesn't do politics. Its never an anarchy. With Jobs, its always a monarchial dictatorship. It's highly efficient. No one can replace him, ever. People who think another executive can stand in for Jobs simply don’t understand the nature of corporations. It’s not about Jobs’ creativity or industrial design acumen.

If you were to hook up some brain signal electrodes to the CEO's brain and send those signals live to these trader types, they'd hedge on those readings too. And they'd get lawyers to put the thing in legalese into the Incorporation document, and if ordinary people like you and me do not object to it, it'll be passed as law too. Look, stock prices are more important than even a few thousand lives. "Quick, how much is a life? At $10,000 a pick, a 1000 lives are about $10mn. Peanuts! I'll make them up in a week. Sink them." Sorry it sounds "graphic", but you've got to admire their cheek when they ask for $700bn to "save the economy" without even as much as putting out a rough sketch of where that loot is going. Hire this guy for the data, that guy for the code, the other guy for the laws, and that guy for the organization. Leave the button-pressing to me. And treat me like I were a bad loud mouthed child. Or rather, I am. Nobody can fire me, get it? The huge difference between people who make companies and people who acquire them. One is a family and the other is an expensive set of papers.
