Thanks for this! Lots of wisdom here. This one particularly rings very true:
"Only way to get a product visionary as the CEO of a company is to start it and not get fired."
From the same part in the article,
"None of the existing players will – not run by product visionaries."
Later elaborated on as: "just have to be better than samsung, hp, motorola – not so hard"
Doesn't this in itself bring an interesting question? Why is that those companies cannot innovate or have visionaries? Surely, they must. Maybe that's another opportunity though. How to find the visionaries in your company and reward them for doing so?
