UMikhal Marek Kulo nyaka, u-Tim Cook ubekwe kumagazini i-TIME phakathi Abantu abayi-100 abanethonya kakhulu emhlabeni. Ungeze inqwaba yosaziwayo ababalulekile, ososayensi, ababhali, ongoti bezempilo kanye nabaphathi abadumile ohlwini.
Isiqephu esimayelana no-Tim Cook sabhalwa ngu-John Lewis, isishoshovu samalungelo abantu kanye nokhongolose waseGeorgia weDemocratic Party. Isikhathi sokugcina uTim Cook enza lolu hlu ngo-2012, okwakungaphansi konyaka ngemuva kokushona kukamanduleli wakhe enhloko yenkampani, uSteve Jobs.
Bekungeke kube lula ukuthi u-Tim Cook athathe isikhundla somsunguli we-Apple uSteve Jobs. Kepha u-Tim waphusha i-Apple enzuzweni engacabangeki kanye nomthwalo wemfanelo omkhulu womphakathi ngomusa, isibindi nokuthakasela okungafihli. U-Tim ubeka izindinganiso ezintsha zalokho ibhizinisi elingakwenza emhlabeni. Akanyakazi ekusekeleni kwakhe amalungelo abantu ngabanye futhi akagcini nje ngokulwela amalungelo abantu abathandana nezitabane, kodwa ulwela ushintsho ngamazwi nangezenzo. Ukuzimisela kwakhe ukusebenzisa imithombo yamandla avuselelekayo bese kushiya iplanethi yethu ihlanzekile futhi iluhlaza esizukulwaneni sezingane zethu ezisazozalwa.
Nakuba uJony Ive engekho ohlwini, usenokuxhumana okuthile nalo. Umklami omkhulu we-Apple wabhala indondo kaBrian Chesky, umsunguli we-Airbnb. Ngokusho kuka-Ivo, wathola indawo yakhe ohlwini njengenguquko emkhakheni wokuhamba. Sibonga yena nomphakathi awusungula, asikho isidingo sokuthi sizizwe singabahambi noma kuphi.
Ngokungeziwe ku-Cook no-Chesky, singathola futhi inombolo yezinye izithonjana zomkhakha wezobuchwepheshe ohlwini. Inhloko ye-Microsoft Satya Nadella, inhloko ye-YouTube uSusan Wojcicki, umsunguli we-LinkedIn Reid Hoffman kanye nomsunguli nenhloko ye-Xiaomi Lei Ťün bafakwe phakathi kwabantu abanethonya kakhulu emhlabeni wethu. Kodwa lolu hlu luhlanganisa nabanye abantu abaziwayo, u-Emma Watson, u-Kanye West, uKim Kardashian, u-Hillary Clinton, uPapa Francis, u-Tim McGraw noma u-Vladimir Putin okungakhulunywa ngabo nomaphi.
U-Tim Cook uphinde waqokwa yimagazini i-TIME emklomelweni othi "Umuntu Wonyaka ka-2014".
Nokho, lokho ukuphakama kwenhlonipho okufanele kufakwe phakathi kweNtshonalanga neKardashian. Ngenzeni kuwe emhlabeni? I-West isalungile ekwenzeni umculo. Kodwa Kardashian? wtf?
