Isikhethi se-apula UWalter Isaacson, umbhali womlando osemthethweni kaSteve Jobs, esikhathini esedlule wazisa ukuthi ushiye imininingwane ethile yempilo kaJobs encwadini yakhe. Kungenzeka ukuthi ufuna ukushicilela le mininingwane ngokuhlukana, ngokunokwenzeka enguqulweni enwetshiwe yesikhathi esizayo yale ncwadi.
Yize singekho isitatimende esisemthethweni ngalezi zinhlelo okwamanje, u-Isaacson usanda kushicilela indatshana ku-Harvard Business Review enesihloko esithi "Isifundo Sobuholi Bangempela sikaSteve Jobs" (Izifundo zikaSteve Jobs Ebuholini Bangempela).
Iningi lendatshana entsha ka-Isaacson ihlukanisa imisebenzi, ubuntu bakhe bobuholi, kanye nemikhuba yakhe yokuphatha. Nokho, u-Isaacson ubuye akhulume ngesifiso sikaJobs sokukhiqiza "amathuluzi omlingo okusebenza ngezithombe zedijithali nokusungula indlela yokwenza ithelevishini ibe idivayisi elula neyomuntu siqu."
Kwesinye sezikhathi zokugcina ngabona uSteve, ngambuza ukuthi kungani edelela abasebenzi bakhe. Imisebenzi yaphendula, “Bheka imiphumela. Bonke abantu engisebenza nabo bahlakaniphile. Ngamunye wabo angafinyelela ezikhundleni eziphezulu kunoma iyiphi enye inkampani. Uma abantu bami bezizwa bexhashazwa, ngokuqinisekile bebezohamba. Kodwa abahambi."
Wabe esethula imizuzwana wabe esethi, cishe ngokudabukisayo, “Senze izinto ezimangalisayo...” Ngisho noma esefa, uSteve Jobs wayevame ukukhuluma ngezinye izimboni eziningi. Ngokwesibonelo, wakhuthaza umbono wezincwadi ze-electronic. U-Apple usevele ezama kanzima ukufeza lesi sifiso sakhe. NgoJanuwari walo nyaka, kwethulwa iphrojekthi ye-e-textbook, futhi kusukela lapho lezi zincwadi zokufunda ze-iPad bezihamba kancane kodwa ngokuqinisekile zenza indlela yazo eya emhlabeni.
Imisebenzi iphinde yaphupha ngokwenza amathuluzi omlingo okusebenza ngezithombe zedijithali kanye nendlela yokwenza ithelevishini ibe idivayisi elula neyomuntu siqu. Le mikhiqizo ngokungangabazeki izofika ngesikhathi nayo. Yize noma Imisebenzi izobe ingasekho, iresiphi yakhe yempumelelo yakha inkampani eyingqayizivele. I-Apple ngeke nje idale inqwaba yemikhiqizo, kodwa inqobo nje uma umoya kaSteve Jobs uqhubeka enkampanini, i-Apple izoba wuphawu lokusungula nobuchwepheshe bezinguquko.
"... umoya kaSteve Jobs uzoqhubeka ..." Hhayi-ke, sizobona, sizobona ukuthi i-Apple ngeke ivele ikhiqize inqwaba yemikhiqizo egaywe kabusha ngokuhamba kwesikhathi...
"Amafutha omnqumo angcono kakhulu angakhiqizwa kuphela ngokucindezela okuphezulu."
