Colorful, insightful, witty, direct, no-nonsense, mocking, uplifting and enthusiastic – Steve Jobs quotes are all of these and then some! Enjoy them and get to know him better through his words. “Stay hungry, stay foolish!” – Steve Jobs “I want to put a ding in the universe!” “There's an old Wayne Gretzky quote that I love. 'I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.' And we've always tried to do that at Apple. Since the very very beginning. And we always will.” January 2007, Macworld Conference and Expo "Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower." “I'm convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non- successful ones is pure perseverance.” Interview, 1995 “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.” - The Wall Street Journal, May 25, 1993 “I feel like somebody just punched me in the stomach and knocked all my wind out. I'm only 30 years old and I want to have a chance to continue creating things. I know I've got at least one more great computer in me. And Apple is not going to give me a chance to do that.” Playboy, September 1987 “I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.” Stanford commencement address, June 12, 2005 “My model for business is The Beatles: They were four guys that kept each other's negative tendencies in check; they balanced each other. And the total was greater than the sum of the parts. Great things in business are never done by one person, they are done by a team of people.” 60 Minutes Interview “Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” “It takes these very simple-minded instructions— ‘Go fetch a number, add it to this number, put the result there, perceive if it’s greater than this other number’––but executes them at a rate of, let’s say, 1,000,000 per second. At 1,000,000 per second, the results appear to be magic.” [Playboy, Feb. 1, 1985] “Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.” “Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works. The design of the Mac wasn’t what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it’s all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it. Most people don’t take the time to do that.” “You can't just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they'll want something new.” “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.” “Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.” “Unfortunately, that’s (experience) too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.” [Wired, February 1996] “It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.” - BusinessWeek, May 25 1998 “In most people's vocabularies, design means veneer. It's interior decorating. It's the fabric of the curtains of the sofa. But to me, nothing could be further from the meaning of design. Design is the fundamental soul of a human-made creation that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or service.” “A lot of companies have chosen to downsize, and maybe that was the right thing for them. We chose a different path. Our belief was that if we kept putting great products in front of customers, they would continue to open their wallets.” Apple Press Release “I think we're having fun. I think our customers really like our products. And we're always trying to do better.” “The people who are doing the work are the moving force behind the Macintosh. My job is to create a space for them, to clear out the rest of the organization and keep it at bay.” “So we went to Atari and said, 'Hey, we've got this amazing thing, even built with some of your parts, and what do you think about funding us? Or we'll give it to you. We just want to do it. Pay our salary, we'll come work for you.' And they said, 'No.' So then we went to Hewlett-Packard, and they said, 'Hey, we don't need you. You haven't got through college yet.'” “It comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much.” - BusinessWeek Online, Oct. 12, 2004 “Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” Stanford Commencement Address, 2005 “You've got to find what you love and that is as true for work as it is for lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you've found it.” Stanford Commencement Address, 2005 “No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.” Stanford Commencement Address, 2005 “Insanely Great!” Describing the Macintosh Computer “Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world?” Asking John Sculley from Pepsi to join as Apple's CEO “I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what’s next.” - NBC Nightly News, May 2006 “I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year.... It's very character- building. “- Apple Confidential 2.0 “I'm as proud of what we don't do as I am of what we do. “ - Business Week “I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do.” - BusinessWeek Online, Oct. 12, 2004 “When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.

Thoughtful and careful planning is important not only to ensure compliance with legal requirements, but also help to minimize the adverse effects of a workforce reduction, further reducing the risk of lawsuits. The following checklist provides some practical guidance to assist employers in implementing a reduction in force and to minimize legal risks. This checklist does not address all the possible issues arising from a RIF and we encourage you to consult with counsel as part of your planning and implementation of a RIF. planning and construction of a layoff n Identify triggering events for layoff n Identify possible layoff alternatives (e.g., pay cuts, schedule reductions, temporary shutdowns and vacation/PTO drawdown, reduction of contractor headcount) n Identify affected sites and estimate number of affected employees for WARN and other analyses n Establish the RIF management team: Identify the individuals

  • PART I: People & Strategy
    By Ken Luskin [email protected] October 28, 2014 PART I: People & Strategy The Brilliance of Steve Jobs was in building a team of geniuses Virtually everyone in the world knows that Steve Jobs was the driving force behind the success of Apple. Unfortunately, few of them understand that without the team of technical gurus Jobs assembled, his visions would not have become reality. Without a Microprocessor Brain, the iPhone would not exist Inside every “smart” computing device is a microprocessor, considered the brains of the device. When Jobs was creating what is now known as the iPhone, he needed a special microprocessor, which could make it through the day without draining the battery. Jobs first approached Intel, the company that was supplying the microprocessors for the entire MAC line. Intel was not interested in supplying a relatively low cost mobile chip, because the bean counters and FAB guys had no vision. So, Jobs built a team of top mobile microproprocessor engineers, licensed the ARM architecture, and created a chip that became the brains of the iPhone and iPad. Apple buys P.A. Semiconductor in 2008 to keep Apple’s microprocessors on the cutting edge With this acquisition Apple received a group of highly innovative engineers, including ex AMD employee Jim Keller. From a VentureBeat article: “Keller spearheaded the development of Apple’s custom mobile processors — including the A4 in the iPhone 4, the A5 in the iPhone 4S and iPad 2, and the A5X in the new iPad — all of which have managed to keep Apple’s mobile devices on the cutting edge.

  • Apple: Iphone 4´S Antennagate
    Corporate Communication Master of International Trade, Transport and Communication University of Cantabria Apple: iPhone 4´s Antennagate The launch of the new iPhone 4 from Apple caused a huge stir all over the world, particularly in the United States in June 2010. The features improvement of the new smartphone went into the background when signal problems were detected. The simple answer that the company gave to their clients only increased the controversy. Finally, Apple had to apologize in public and compensate their customers. Apple Inc. Apple Inc. is an American multinational corporation headquartered in Cupertino, California, that designs, develops, and sells consumer electronics, computer software and personal computers. The company was founded on April 1, 1976, by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne to sell a personal computer kit called Apple I, a computer unassisted designed by Wozniak. Since then, Apple has suffered many changes and currently it is the world's second-largest information technology company by revenue after Samsung Electronics and the world's third-largest mobile phone maker after Samsung and Nokia1. Fortune magazine named Apple the most admired company in the United States in 2008, and in the world from 2008 to 2012. Apple's marketing strategy is powerful and has made them the success story they are. They use unique marketing techniques as understanding and serving the customer better than anyone else, making sure every little thing serves always and everywhere. Apple is not limited to cover only the need of customers, they also are capable of creating demand with innovating products that does not exist on market.
