  • The Identification and Division of Steve Jobs
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Scott M. Anderson for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Speech Communication, Speech Communication, and English presented on May 17, 2012. Title: The Identification and Division of Steve Jobs Abstract approved: Mark P. Moore On April 1, 1976, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak entered into a partnership agreement to found Apple Computer. In the decade that followed, Apple experienced remarkable growth and success, as Jobs catapulted Apple to the Fortune 500 list of top‐flight companies faster than any other company in history. Under direction of Jobs, Apple, an idea that started in a garage, transformed into a major force in the computer industry of the 1980s. Though Jobs’ leadership undoubtedly influenced Apple’s success during this time, in 1995, he was forced to resign, when conflicts mounted at the executive level. Using Kenneth Burke’s theory of identification and the dramatistic process, this thesis examines Jobs’ discourse through a series of interviews and textual artifacts. First, I provide a framework for Jobs’ acceptance and rejection of the social order at Apple, and then consider the ways in which Jobs identified with employee and consumer audiences on the basis of division. Analysis shows that Jobs identified with individual empowerment, but valued separation and exclusivity. Jobs’ preference to create identification through division, therefore, established the foundation for new identifications to emerge. The findings of this study suggest that division has significant implications for creating unity. ©Copyright by Scott M.

  • A Plague of Biblical Dimensions. the Rise of a Movement That Gloried in the Murder of Civilians, Journalists and Aid Workers
    Image by Alex MacLean. Alberta, Canada, 2014 A plague of biblical dimensions. The rise of a movement that gloried in the murder of civilians, journalists and aid workers. A series of tragic police encounters, in the second term of America’s first black president, that undermined our faith in progress toward racial justice. 2014 was a difficult year, for the world and for journalism. Coverage of Ebola and Ferguson often featured more heat than light. A reporting fiasco atRolling Stone undermined the case for action against sexual crimes. The New Republic’s implosion showed that a billionaire owner is no guarantee of success. In the midst of turbulence the Pulitzer Center stuck to the mission set forth by Joseph Pulitzer III decades ago—“to illuminate dark places and, with a deep sense of responsibility, interpret these troubled times.” Our journalists produced 385 stories for 130 outlets—using new media, visual data, powerful images and old-fashioned storytelling to reach increasingly diverse audiences. We commissioned more reporting than ever, on topics ranging from the rise of the Islamic State and lessons learned from the Ebola crisis to climate change and the role of religion in public policy. We rejoiced in the release by Somali pirates of Pulitzer Center journalist grantee Michael Scott Moore, after two years and eight months of captivity. Our education initiatives continued to grow, reaching thousands of students through nearly 500 engagements. Student fellows from partner universities in our Campus Consortium reported from 16 countries, on issues ranging from Syrian refugees to hydropower in India and healthcare in Kenya.

This report details our investigation and disruption of the advanced persistent threat actor known in the security industry as Arid Viper, who we identified creating and using fake accounts in targeted cyber espionage campaigns. For the first time, we observed Arid Viper incorporating fully functional custom iOS surveillanceware, capable of stealing sensitive user data from iPhones without requiring devices be jailbroken prior to compromise. The focus of Arid Viper’s recent operation we discuss in this paper shows similar geographic and occupational targeting as was previously reported by our industry peers. Much of Arid Viper’s activity detailed in this report focused on individuals in Palestine, including government officials, members of the Fatah political party, student groups, and security forces.

  • Strategic Leadership and Innovation at Apple
    . . . 309-038-1 STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP & INNOVATION AT APPLE INC1. Stop and look at Apple for a second, since it's an odd company. ... While most high- tech firms focus on one or two sectors, Apple does all of them at once ... Apple is essentially operating its own closed miniature techno-economy. ... If you follow conventional wisdom, Apple is doing it all wrong. And yet ... this is the company that gave us three of the signature technological innovations of the past 30 years: the Apple II, the Macintosh and the iPod. (Grossman, 2005) Apples Fall and Rise Voted as the most innovative company for three consecutive years during 2006-2008 and as Americas number 1 most Admired Company (McGregor, 2008), Apple seemed to have it all: innovative products that have redefined their markets (such as the iMac and the iPod), a consumer base as loyal as a fun club, and a business model characterized by vertical integration and synergies that no competitor could easily imitate. The Apple brand had transcended the barriers of the computer industry to traverse the consumer electronics, record, movie, and the video and music production industries (see Figure 1 for an outline of Apples product and service portfolio). In 2008 the Apple brand was listed as the 24th most valuable global brand (up from 33rd place the previous year), valued at $13.7bn (Interbrand, 2008). After a lackluster period during 1989-1997 when Apple was nearly written off, its dynamic comeback was impressive. Between 2003 and 2008 Apples sales tripled to $24 billion and profits increased to $3.5 billion, up from a mere $24 million (See Table 1 for an outline of Apples financial performance during 2006-8).

  • FY20 Annual Report
    Accelerating the Pace of Conservation Fiscal Year 2020 Annual Report and Progress Made on the 2025 Strategic Action Plan This year, TLC nature preserves have been more important than ever. TLC nature preserves have never been more important to our community, and they are not possible without you, our incredible supporters. You have made this year — which has been hard for so many — better for thousands of people in so many ways. We cannot tell you how many messages we’ve received that share the same sentiment: TLC nature preserves have been absolutely vital during the pandemic. Before COVID-19, in October 2019, TLC conserved its largest land project ever — Brogden Bottomlands, a 1,120-acre tract of land in Johnston County, and helped host the national Land Trust Alliance Rally in Raleigh. Throughout the year, staff hosted dozens of volunteer workdays and environmental education programs. I am proud of TLC staff, board, volunteers, and supporters for the way they have adapted and dealt with these challenging times. Starting at the beginning of this pandemic, we had to postpone (and ultimately cancel) two of our most anticipated events of the year: Wild Ideas for Farms and Forests in March and the Grand Opening of Bailey and Sarah Williamson Preserve in April. Since then, we’ve accomplished so much together. Before March was over, we launched a new webinar series called Conservation Conversations. We’ve been grateful to work with some of our volunteers remotely. We were blown away by everyone’s generosity on our Giving Day on April 22. And we were thrilled to finally open Williamson Preserve to the public in September.

Of course, what are called the “glamour” jobs—the movies, television, the music business, fashion—often only seem glamorous from the outside: Working in one of those fi elds is fraught with constant challenges and frustrations. Hardly anyone thinks of technology as a glamour field, but for me, at least, work has never been as satisfying or as unbelievably exciting as when I was working with Steve Jobs. I’ve known and worked with the leaders of IBM and Intel; I’ve met great leaders and thinkers, including Jack Welch, Buckminster Fuller, and Joseph Campbell, and discussed the next paradigm change in organizational structure with Peter Drucker.
