When you have a leader like Steve Jobs, who understands the business on such a fundamental level, you can afford to be a bit heavy handed to make that leader's vision a reality.

Problem is, there is only one Steve Jobs and vanishingly few who come close.

I think most companies would do well to avoid Apple's tactics.

If Apple's DNA is their people, then Steve Jobs is the Creator

In the beginning Jobs created the Woz and the Apple.

Now the Apple was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the motherboards, and the Spirit of Jobs was hovering over the garage.
