  • The next Apple CEO: Who could succeed Tim Cook?

    arnold65arnold65
    Gil Amelio actually saved Apple! 

    He recognised that he was a good manager, but knew little about Apple or it's business. He hired an outsider - Ellen Hancock - who did know computer systems, who correctly reported that Apple's current OS strategy, Copland, was a failure. Gil then immediately went out to purchase for Apple an off-the-shelf OS, which could be "Apple-ised", and it was he who discovered that the favourite option - BeOS - was half finished; Gil recommended Apple purchase the NextStep OS. If Apple had gone on with Copland/Gershwin, there would literally be no Apple today, so thanks Gil.

    My vote - Steve Wozniak!
