Steve Jobs – A true Inspiration

While the whole world is grieving on the death of Apple’s co-founder Steve Jobs, let us pay tribute to some of his skills which made him special around the world.                             The media has always symbolized Steve Jobs for his impact on Apple. Under his supervision, the company became a master brand and increased sales significantly with the introduction of iMac and the iPod.  Further in June 2007, Apple entered the cellular industry with the introduction of the iPhone.

Jobs always took personal responsibility for what Apple makes and how these products would feel to the user. He was responsible for directing the design processes of the products from start to end, asking innumerable questions, thereby pushing the production unit towards manufacturing more useful, efficient and better products. The decisions that most companies would consider finishing touches, like the look of a hinge, the sound a product makes when it is opened or shut, the color of a products case – were to Jobs, the extreme core of the designing process at Apple.

With his death, the world has truly lost a visionary, a person who, as President Obama puts it “bold enough to believe he could change the world”.
