I try to consume anything Steve says in these types of video. He might have been a terrible person sometimes but he is the greatest business man ever.
A lot of people seem to think that 'asshole' is a stepping stone to success. With no evidence to support it either way, I try to live presuming that it was 'despite'. That Apple could have been ever greater had he managed to be assertive and strong without being abusive.
I’ve seen this a lot. People are assholes when young and then they mature and manage to maintain their effectiveness while inflicting less damage.
Full disclaimer, I was a full-on Apple fanboi from the Nineties to the mid 2010s.
