Steve Jobs

Steve Jobsby Walter IssacsonI recommend the book about Steve Jobs.  The book is an incredibly honest protrayel of a leader that changed the world.  I don't agree with all of his leadership philosophies or tactics, but his life story is inspiring and taught me a couple of key lessons.  Given that the theme of my blog is to aim big, Steve's life story illustrates all the ups and downs and twists and turns that can happen.  Steve learned alot from some surprising places such as his trip to India and his use of drugs.  And, Steve illustrated how preparing for and delivering world class presentations can make or break a product launch and create perceptions that can be lasting.  Walter Issacson has done a masterful job of writing a book that reads like a novel of a complicated and impactful leader.
