An Insider's Take on Steve Jobs

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the quite-a-bit-of-new-money-to-go-with-it dept.

Jerry Rivers writes "Business Week has an interesting, if short, interview with Edgar Woolard Jr., the man who brought Jobs back to Apple in the dark days of 1996. "Old money" Woolard offers some interesting insights into the man behind the iMac and the iPod, including his take on Jobs' 'five special characteristics' that make him the success that he is."
