Objective: To be able to examine and evaluate the effectiveness and ineffectiveness of Steve Jobs' Leadership ability.
Write a coherent and brief essay about your opinion on Steve Jobs' Leadership style. Be sure to include the following:
Discuss his leadership style and categorize it using the articles we discussed in class. (attached below)Given each of the situations for each of the 3 product launches (Macintosh computer, Next Cube, Apple Mac), was his style appropriate? Why or why not?
It was obvious that he was not a likable man to most people. Do you think a leader should be likable to the masses? Why or why not. If he was unlikable to so many people, why did so many talented people stay loyal to him?
Was Steve Jobs an awful person? Give direct examples of why or why not.
Ultimately, was he a good leader? Why or why not? You cannot choose both sides. Pick one side to answer this.
