Apple would never have become the world's biggest company without Steve. But Steve would still have done similar things with a different group of talented people. And yes, the talented people would have done fine at other companies. But doing mediocre things and nobody would even know they existed, without Steve, the marketing genius of the 21st century. People here tend to underestimate the importance of leadership, planing, and strategy. What did the Apple team do before Steve jobs came back? Apple had to be rescued by Microsoft.
Not all CEOs are overpaid greedy people who contribute little.
