Un nouveau livre (pour l’instant en Anglais) sur Steve Jobs. Il est intéressant parce qu’il montre que le patron d’Apple est unique et vogue souvent à contre courant. En voici un simple exemple:

“But unlike a lot of people in product marketing those days who would go out and do customer testing, asking people what they wanted, Steve didn’t believe in that. He said ‘How can I possibly ask someone what a graphics-based computer ought to be when they have no idea what a graphics-based computer is? No one has ever seen one before’.” …and… “Like Henry Ford once said: ‘If I’d asked my customers what they wanted, they’d have said a faster horse’. ” (pages 63-64).

Si vous appréciez cet extrait, vous apprécierez le livre. Merci à Jacques de m’en avoir conseillé la lecture!
