The biography is a great book with a lot of lessons for entrepreneurs. A must read! Steve had an amazing life and although he had his dark sides his story has got some very positive lessons to take. The 3 things I took out: 

Walking while talking

All his important one to one meetings he asked people to join him for a walk, even with CEO's used to a more formal setting. He started the walk by giving his big picture and ended by asking what he wanted to reach and coming to the actions. He walked around many miles in Palo Alto. It made me wonder how big decisions would look like if we all do this including the big forms of world leaders like the important ones on out ecology. I am going to walk many more steps in 2012!

Think bIg, different and focus

Know what you want. What is the big thing in your life? Do it your own way. For Steve he wanted Apple to be number one in leaving a legacy for (future) users on the cross road of technology and art. That is why the design and user friendliness were so important. He always looked for new solutions and made his people believe that everything was possible which became true at the end of the day. And he focussed on that, he eliminated the rest that distracts.

The A team

Top people want to work with peers. Make sure you attract people around you who believe in what you believe. Then they will put all their passion, sweat and tears in it. If you believe in inspiring leaders to change the future, our A team in India would like to talk to you!
