Walter Isaaccson, author of the best selling biography on Steve Jobs reacts to how many readers have focused on the rough side of Job’s personality.  In this update, he focuses on the real leadership lessons we can all take away from this extraordinary man.

Focus, simplify, take end to end responsibility, leapfrog, product before profit, don’t be a slave to focus groups, bend reality, “impute”, push for perfections, tolerate only “A”players, engage face to face, know both the big picture and the details,combine both the humanities and the sciences, stay hungry, stay foolish.”

His greatest accomplishment was building a company that went from good to great and is built to last!
