Here is a case study about Steven Paul Jobs; the founder of Apple, his life, obstacles, victories, friends and many more. Hope this helps somehow

1. Case Study-
Steve Jobs
Founder;
Apple

2. • Steven Paul Jobs, also known as Steve
Jobs; the inventor and co-founder of the
Apple industries; the world’s leading
technology company of 2015.
• He was born on February 24, 1955, San
Francisco, California, United States.

3. • Steve jobs was nothing less than one of the most greatest visionary
that had ever existed. He was; not only an entrepreneur; risk taker;
a negotiator; crisis manager; determined; communicator; and all
above…the best of all the qualities mentioned above. Here are the
real incidents of sir Jobs’s life that describe him as an
entrepreneur:-
• He was himself given the task of ‘his very first own project’ and
later made it accepted by his boss- he did not knew that would he
be able to do it or not, but he took risks making it his boost towards
success. His first presentation with Wozniak at homebrew after
which he was given his first deal proved him a good negotiator.

4. • Steve was an amazing Crisis Manager who was
confronted with a crisis on finalizing his very first
contract that was managed by him with great swift an
ease, then and there.
• He was determined; he got rejected while trying to
convince consumers and investors, a thousand
times…he did not lose hope and finally got his investor.
• Steve Jobs had his first public presentation in 1977 for
Apple II; which was very persuasive and proved him a
fine communicator.
•

5. • Steven Paul Jobs; as a person; was very practical.
• In my opinion; as he was adopted, he did not know much about his
family neither he did care much.
• In his eyes, he was all alone; always. ‘People come and go’ that was
what he actually believed in. He even denied being the father of his
very own daughter; at that time, because he was practical, and did
not wanted any distractions to make him away from his world; Apple,
although later he accepted her as a daughter and a had a family as
well.

6. • The only problem, Steve Jobs faced was because of his obsession
towards his business and practicality; that was cause of his long-alone
life.
• He was ‘self-made’, that means- he did not like people telling him
what to and what not to do.
• He was unique as he did not believe in degrees and the paces set by
the world, he makes his own rules as he does not wear slippers,
unlike the world.
• There is another quality he possessed as a person; in-born, which is:
committed; he was committed towards whatever he chose; family or
business.
• There is nothing much that can describe him, as a person ; in my
opinion, than PRACTICAL, as mentioned earlier; that obviously makes
him different.

7. • Steve Jobs was accompanied by his friend and co-founder, Steve Wozniak; an
amazing ‘Brainist’; the only word that can describe him.
• Wozniak; as an entrepreneur, was-brilliant, but only as far as work is concerned; his
ideas and attitude were the things he applied in business.
• Unlike Jobs, he worked for fun, whereas Jobs had a motive-‘to change the entire
world’.
• Woz; as an entrepreneur, was never sure about anything. It was Steve who always
made him choose and go on the right way.
• He was not a good communicator; Apple’s first presentation was a total flop,
because of the unconfident Wozniak. However, no one is perfect; like Wozniak and
Jobs, who learnt business while doing it.
• Here is a picture of the duo, who together formed Apple to what it was and is now.
• Wozniak was a person who knew a bit of business less than Jobs, as he never tried
anything new and Steve was never satisfied with things he had already achieved.
• Still, both worked really hard to make the Apple industries; with one visionary and
the other brainist.

8. • Here are some facts, about Steve Jobs:-
• Steve Jobs was adopted shortly after being born. Jobs was, biologically,
half Arab. His biological father was Syrian and his mother was American.
• Jobs often parked in spots reserved for the handicapped.
• Jobs harbored an intense dislike for PCs, and is quoted as saying to one friend,
"I'd rather sell dog shit than PCs."
• well-known egomaniac, Jobs was infamous for being difficult and demanding.
In 1993, he held a spot on Fortune's list of America's Toughest Bosses.
• Bill Clinton once invited Jobs to spend the night sleeping in the Lincoln
bedroom of the White House.
• He kept getting
popular…

9. • Jobs was found to have pancreatic cancer in 2003, but rather than taking the
doctor-recommended path of immediate operation, Jobs subscribed to an
alternative-medicine regimen, including a vegan diet, acupuncture, and herbal
remedies, even consulting a psychic.
• After nine months, Jobs gave in and underwent surgery. Many consider the delay a
major factor in his eventual decline.
• Apple, Microsoft, and Disney properties (including Disneyland and Disney World)
flew their flags at half-staff when Jobs died.
• His last words on his deathbed were, "Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow," while gazing over
his family's shoulders.
• Tim Cook revealed in a 2014 interview that Jobs's main office and nameplate are
still as they were in 2011, when Jobs passed away.
• Sunday, October 16, 2011
, was declared Steve Jobs
Day by the governor
of California,
Jerry Brown.

10. • WELL, the person was not an alien; he was a normal person who thought he
could change the world; and of course, he did. And the reason was for that
is; he believed in-

11. • So, overall, what you can call him is INSANELY
GREAT…
