Steve Jobs had an unconventional leadership style but was ultimately a transformational leader. Transformational leaders are inspirational, trustworthy, and charismatic role models who motivate their team to achieve shared goals. Though Jobs' personality traits were not typical of an effective leader, his charisma, self-confidence, and passion for his work overshadowed any negatives, making him highly successful as Apple's CEO. Transformational leadership focuses on vision, passion, innovation, involvement, and effective communication to engage teams and inspire them to become leaders themselves.

8. Interestingly, in general Steve Jobs
personality traits would not be
characterized as the traits of an effective
leader. In a way, he is far from a classical
“text-book” example. Nevertheless his
charisma, self-confidence and passion for
work overshadow all his negative
characteristics thus making him one of
most successful CEO’s of the decade.
