STEVE JOBSAn American entrepreneur, marketer, and inventor
who was the co-founder, chairman and CEO of Apple Inc.(since 1976).
In 1985, Jobs left Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher-education and business markets.
In 1996, after Apple had failed to deliver its operating system(Copland) Gil Amelio turned to NeXT Computer, and the NeXTSTEP platform became the foundation for the Mac OS X.
Jobs returned to Apple as an advisor, and took control of the company as an interim CEO. Jobs brought Apple from near bankruptcy to profitability by 1998.

JOB’S RETURN TO APPLE INC.In 1996, Apple announced that it would buy NeXT
for $427 million bringing Jobs back to the company he co-founded.
In March 1998, to concentrate Apple's efforts on returning to profitability, Jobs terminated a number of projects such as Newton, Cyberdog and OpenDoc.
Many employees developed a fear of encountering Jobs while riding in the elevator, "afraid that they might not have a job when the doors opened.
Reality was that Jobs's summary executions were rare, but a handful of victims was enough to terrorize a whole company.

JOBS’S TENURE Jobs oversaw the development of the iMac, iTunes,
iPod, iPhone, and iPad and on the services side, the company's Apple Retail Stores, iTunes Store and the App Store.
The success of these products and services provided several years of stable financial returns, and propelled Apple to become the world's most valuable publicly traded company in 2011
He has been referred to as "legendary", a "futurist" or simply "visionary", and has been described as the "Father of the Digital Revolution", "master of innovation", "the master evangelist of the digital age” and a "design perfectionist“

JOBS’S MANAGEMENT STYLE
JOBS was a perfectionist and people remember him as aggressive and demanding personality.
JOBS had great decision making ability and immediately shut downed the projects which he thought were not worthy.
JOBS was a big time competitor and once had a public war of words with Dell Computer CEO Michael Dell, in 1987 when Jobs first criticized Dell for making "un-innovative beige boxes".
JOBS was very mobile socially and most of the time he introduced the Apple Inc. products himself although he was the CEO.

METHODOLOGY OF STEVE JOBSAnticipate the futureAlways pursue perfectionLearn any way you canAlways move forwardSurround yourself with bright peopleTake risksSell dreams, nor productsThe time to do something is always nowWhat makes Steve’s methodology different from everyone
else’s is that he always believed the most important decisions you make are not the things you do – but the things that you decide not to do.

HOW LEGEND IS REMEMBERED ?
Apple CEO Tim Cook noted, "More so than any person I ever met in my life, [Jobs] had the ability to change his mind much more so than anyone I’ve ever met... Maybe the most underappreciated thing about Steve was that he had the courage to change his mind."
Daniel Kottke, one of Apple's earliest employees and a college friend of Jobs', stated that "Between Woz and Jobs, Woz was the innovator, the inventor. Steve Jobs was the marketing person.”

JOBS’S RESIGNATION In August 2011, Jobs resigned as CEO of Apple due to
Metastatic Insulinoma which later was the cause of his death.
But remained with the company as chairman of the company's board. Hours after the announcement, Apple Inc. (AAPL) shares dropped five percent in after-hours trading.
According to Forbes (Business Magazine) the impact was felt in a negative way beyond Apple, including at The Walt Disney Company where Jobs served as director. In after-hours trading on the day of the announcement, Walt Disney Co. (DIS) shares dropped 1.5 percent
6 weeks after retirement, Steve Jobs passed away.

SOME THINGS APPLE HAS DONE SINCE STEVE JOBS DIED THAT HE MIGHT HAVE
DISAGREED WITH Apple killed skeuomorphism in iOS Apple is phasing out rounded rectangles Jobs said he was anti-small tablets, but Apple made the iPad
Mini Apple did a huge dividend and stock buyback Apple's Maps were a complete disaster Apple has matching charitable contributions for employees Siri is a joke Apple's advertising has gone south Additionally, the public's perception of Apple is not as good as

APPLE'S SALES HAVE NOT BEEN AFFECTED BY JOBS' DEATH
Market share in smartphones has been affected by factors such as the launch dates of its iPhone and strong competition from Samsung

WHAT RESEARCHERS SAY:
Apple launches dull without JobsApple must continue cultivating brand loyalty'Vulnerable' without JobsIt's like all the other companies become bolder to
attack AppleApple products seem to have dropped since iPhone 4Swith Jobs, you won't hear such bad malfunctions
going on like MapsJobs always had really strict quality control and now
that seems to be missing

JOBS INTRODUCES iPHONE
On June 29, 2007 Apple’s introduction of the iPhone, a multi-touch display cell phone which also included the features of an iPod and with its own mobile browser revolutionized the mobile browsing scene.
While stimulating innovation, Jobs also reminded his employees that "real artists ship"

INTERVIEWS CONDUCTED ON WHETHER DID APPLE LOSE ITS INNOVATION AFTER STEVE JOBS DIED?
75 % students said YES !! When Steve Jobs died, Apple may have died along with him. Steve Jobs' death marked the end of an era and they will not
get far without the mastermind that kept them afloat for so long
What happens with Mac OS and iOS could destroy their heritage.
No new products! After Jobs' death Without him, Apple has only been releasing "newer" models
and such of old products a single man kept innovation flowing! Apple has lost its magic with Jobs gone
![Page 22: Research on Apple Inc. after the demise of Steve Jobs](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051818/54bc8eb94a795963738b456f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
No More Innovation at Apple Inc ?Innovation doesn't come easily, but I think Apple
has gone a bit bland ever since Jobs died.Iphone models have been released, basically just
one rework of an old model after anotherNumbers don't lie, they've lost considerable market
share since the death of Job's to Samsung and other companies
The primary reason is the lack of innovation at Apple and the creation of new products and new features with other manufactures
![Page 23: Research on Apple Inc. after the demise of Steve Jobs](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051818/54bc8eb94a795963738b456f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
THE 25% WHO SAID NO !Jobs wasn't an innovator in the first place, Jobs
was a marketer, not a programmer or a designer. He was the face of Apple, but not who created
the product.He never invented anything, he simply marketed
themOne person does not make a huge impact to a
company as large as appleApple's success will be determined by the
products that they sell – not only smartphones!Apple followers are loyal

FOR THOSE WHO DIDN’T KNOW STEVE JOBS, ANOTHER QUESTION WAS ASKED:
IS APPLE BETTER THAN SAMSUNG?
50% said YES, 50% said NO !! Apple is Original and it came first in touch technology! Apple has the fastest chip in the world which is the A6X
chip and Samsung doesn't Apple has about 50 billion apps and Samsung doesn’t Apple has is iTunes, free text messaging, and the Mac book Apple phones have a better quality and better functionality Samsung has been copying it all the time !!

APPLE VS SAMSUNGSince Tim Cook took over as CEO in 2011, Apple has
become more of an iterator rather than an innovatorApple rumor mill has forecast (wrongly) the imminent
arrival of the iWatch and the iTV, while Samsung has brought these products to market, with the Galaxy Gear and Smart TV.
Samsung successfully conveyed the message “We are the first to introduce” although they are not flawless.
Former Apple CEO John Sculley about Samsung “Product design, marketing and complex supply-chain management are the trifecta of success in consumer electronics. Excelling at all of them simultaneously is a rare feat, much like throwing a no-hitter in baseball”

CEO & LEADERSHIP
Samsung has not just one but three CEOs. Dr. Kwon is the Chairman and Lead CEO of Samsung
Jobs said about Tim Cook (Apple CEO) “Tim is not a product person”
Currently Samsung leadership has more momentum they are executing at speed, picking up customers, gaining market share and widening product range.

SAMSUNG CLOSING THE GAP
![Page 30: Research on Apple Inc. after the demise of Steve Jobs](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051818/54bc8eb94a795963738b456f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
SAMSUNG SPENDING ON
-:ADVERTISING:-
Samsung making a dent despite Apple’s dedicated customers and developed market.
One of every three smartphones purchased is under from Samsung
Samsung spends a bigger chunk of its annual revenue on advertising and promotion than any other of the world's top 20 companies by sales = 5.4%, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Apple spends just 0.6% and General Motors 3.5%.Apple may sit in top position now, but has lost its mojo over
the last couple of years through lackluster product releases and perceived lack of innovation.

TIM COOK HOPES FOR iPAD CHRISTMAS
Graph from Business Insider shows that, for the last two quarters, Samsung’s profits were actually higher than Apple’s
Having settled into a pattern of releasing new iPhones and iPads in September/October, Apple is now highly reliant on the holiday quarter in Q4
Tim Cook may have a point when he said, “I think it’s going to be an iPad Christmas.”

EPILOGUE
So overall today they seem to be neck and neck the growth of Samsung seems to be steadier and more sustained.
We’re all fascinated by Apple, but so much of what we hear turns out just to be rumors. Right now it remains a profit generating machine, but long-term that will change if it fails to recapture the public imagination.
Samsung has weathered years of legal action, and having initially copied parts of the Apple playbook, it is now starting to innovate into new areas.
My head currently says the 3 mystery CEOs of Samsung will prevail, but my heart really wants Apple to come back and leapfrog them, with innovation that changes our lives again.
Maybe in future both will remain big beasts, and we will have an Apple and Samsung duopoly.
