Why founders are important
Steve Jobs made Apple the world’s most successful company with just two things: a dream, and help from millions of people.
There would be no iPhone or Mac without the help of designers, engineers, marketers, lawyers, assembly workers, and countless others along the way. (Don’t even begin to think about all the managers involved.)
Steve Jobs’ vision was just as important. As founder and CEO, Jobs created a company and culture that built some pretty innovative products.
The next Steve Jobs isn’t who you think it is
People looked high and low for the next Steve Jobs since his passing. Seeing as the Apple model clearly worked for Apple, VCs and angel investors would constantly invest in startups whose visionary founders had moonshot ideas and the determination to match.
Yet Steve Jobs’ dream is attainable by anyone, and not just founders who look like him. Founders of backgrounds different from Jobs struggled to gain a foothold in the startup world for quite some time. Though these founders gained traction over the years, their companies represent a fraction of funded startups.
