This is a comment on Justin Colussi’s posting on “Steve Jobs Was A Jerk”.
Well Justin, Though I agree with many of your points about Jobs demanding respect, and distinguished rude personality, I do still believe Steve Job’s Contribution to the tech world today overweighs any negative connotations which can be directed his way.
Your statements of his accomplishments paying off, and business being a “cutthroat” game where much like nature only the strong succeed are all very accurate statements and do give Steve reasoning for the way he presents himself. Though Steve was considered a “jerkisk”, i do also believe that at the administrative level it is essential for an executive to display a hard-nose sense of authority in order to maintain control and order within the workforce.
Apples success is directly related to Steve’s work ethic and ability to overstrike obstacles. Playing with fire in a very competitive market is what Apple has been doing for years now, all in front of the genius Steve Jobs who orchestrated the companies every move until the day he passed.
