I never met Steve jobs but, like millions in this world, always had the pleasure and privilege to listen and learn from him. Steve defined an era, a culture and a style that many of us will cherish for years to come. There are number of things Steve has taught me, few of them are:
- Always Challenge the Status quo: If you don’t see things right, try to fix it. If you can’t, try harder (Apple’s comeback)
- Believe in your products and that you can change the world with persistence (Pixar, iPod, iPhone, iPad)
- User Experience and Design Matters: Make products, systems, things, processes that are easier to use and that they look good even though they are complex products (Simple designs of swipe, pinch, tap)
- Create a brand that people love; Present with elegance: This is not just applicable to speeches and presentations, but is applicable in everything we do. For example, if you are cooking daily food, be a chef and decorate it. (Steve’s presentations)
I am not saying I have nailed all these things. These are things I will cherish from iSteve!
