Steve Jobs stopt als CEO Apple

Dit is inmiddels al oud nieuws en ik denk dat zo’n beetje heel internet dit nieuws op zijn website heeft staan. Door toch nog even een korte vermelding voor de mensen die alleen maar digimind.nl lezen 🙂

Maar indien je de woorden van Steve Jobs zelf nog niet gelezen had, hier komen ze. Steve is nog niet helemaal weg en zal op de achtergrond zeker mee doen en denken…

I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.

I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Steve
