Research on JOBS

Leadership

Components of Job's leadership 21

While Apple had six CEOs through the period of 1977-1985, it has become evident that it lacked both marketing and technological zeal and the CEO which the company needed had to combine the knowledge and vision of the future technology and marketing.

Jobs was able to restructure the company and return it to the normal performance through the development of new products and making them popular among consumers.

Components of Job's leadership

THE LEADERSHIP STYLE OF STEVE JOBS

one should always keep in mind that there is no one best way to influence others.

Somebody may become surprised to know that Jobs has not graduated any college (he started his education but never finished it) so he is a by born leader

Like a Transactional leader he guided or motivated his followers towards established goals by clarifying role and tasks requirements.(Northouse, G.N., 2010)

THE LEADERSHIP STYLE OF STEVE JOBS

like a transformational leader, he focuses on " transforming " others to help each other to be encouraging and harmonious, and to look out for the organizations a whole.(Northouse, G.N., 2010)

In his leadership he enhances the motivation performance of his followers group , some people also categorize him as a charismatic leader .As a CHARISMATIC LEADER providing computers as a tool to change the world,(Forbes 2011)

From the time he was a kid Steve thought that his products could change the world'. (Anonymous, 2006) so he was a visionary leader.

26

THE LEADERSHIP STYLE OF STEVE JOBS

At the very beginning of apple Steve jobs was a Autocratic Leader.("Steve Jobs' Bad Bet". Fortune2007)

In 1996 after retuning apple Steve jobs became Democratic leader.

Every time he gave chance to other to take part for making decision ,so we can say he was also a Delegative leader.

27

Innovation brings leadership Jobs saw the power of innovation in building

his company. Till today, we can see the innovating power of Apple Computers Inc. as it continues to take market leadership in the industry.

 He knew and thought about the customer desire , the trends in tech, the true limitlessness of technology, and the business environment so he was also a situational leader.
