I’d also note that not every company is susceptible to being run with Jobs-style management. General Electric, for instance, could not in my view be run at all with a Jobsian approach at the top: no human could involve himself in the details of jet engines, locomotives, appliances, financial services, lighting, etc. in the way that Steve Jobs has involved himself in every detail of Apple. A GE division, on the other hand, could be and possibly should be run with a Jobsian approach, but not the overall company.
