"You know who the best managers are? They're the great individual contributors, who never ever want to be a manager, but decide they have to be a manager because no one else is going to be able to do as good a job as them." Very powerful, in all honesty.

Steve Jobs words.
Brillian, just brilliant. I wich they could teach this to all the MBA students in America
Really true words.. from great Steve Jobs.
As a software engineer, I really believed in every single one of the projects I worked on. That is until the company get's sold, investors, owners, and stakeholders walk away millionaires and these hardworking software engineers who worked late hours bringing the dream to fruition get handed a pink slip. Hard to find "passion" when you see this happen over and over in the software engineering world.
Job's employees have no idea they are simply sheep for the wealthy.
+FCBArvin "they always have the opportunity to start something" This is one of the most deceptive argument. Our life, and everything it encompasses, is finite.
+FCBArvin my initial point was that you shouldn't work 70 hour work weeks and expect any substantial bonuses or compensation with your 9-5. Too many software engineers kill themselves working endless hours building a product only to get nothing "extra" in the end. I would argue that there is nothing wrong with working 9-5 as a software engineer, just make sure you keep it 9-5, unless you have equity, stock, or ownership percentage. Otherwise all the extra time at work will be for nothing. I've been there and done that and regret those weekends and late 1AM work days only to make someone else a millionaire. I have no problem making someone else rich, but I won't break my back doing it again.
+Joe Tavarez I don't understand. If there was no gain of any kind in doing it, no contract for a return on your investment why work from 5pm - 1pm for *free*?? Who does this?
That's why I started my own company. I feel your post.
He is so true. I call them Email Managers. They check their mails, ask ETAs, notify upper management, setup meetings, ask unnecessary questions and go home. You can’t learn anything from them other than how to sound relevant during meetings.
Thanks for sharing! 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
How to sound relevant and insightful... so true!
fuck this is me. I work in tech. Company circling the plug
Email managers is a good description. I call them Yes-men. They're there to report back to their upper-management. They're there to report numbers, but not lead. This is a VERY typical structure in organizations with an owner structure. The site managers doesn't get any incentives for evolving the business. They're rewarded for reporting back to upper management and get to keep their jobs in return. Organizations like that will ALWAYS go under due to advances in technology, because they're stuck in the past. And when the owners realize they can't milk more money out of them they sell the company.
The problem isn't the hiring process or the managers, the problem is the organizational structure. I work for a company like this today. I will never ever work for a global company again. A good company HAS to have a passionate leader as the owner. Otherwise you will never ever see long term growth.
That is the job they're given, the outcome expected and all they have time for. Half of them are working managers too, so they're "productive." Most good managers are destroyed.
"they knew how to manage, but they didn't know how to do anything!" 30 years on and not alot has changed with big corporate companies
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for watching. 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
this is why i started my own company. because of bosses like this. who just "managed" but they didn't even know what makes their product tick.
100! I left a huge company for that reason. Where I’m at now is still good sized but you really own your lane. There aren’t 18 ppl on every call with no one actually being responsible. It’s refreshing.
@@insanecuckooman8342 Apple is full of managers, thousands of them, they only became successful after they had them... Jobs takes the credit, but it was managers and inventors (aka outside companies like samsung) that made their products 'wow'...
nothing changed but is just worsen.
My father was the 25th Employee at Apple. R.I.P. Dad - 05/25/1955 - 08/02/2019. I still have your Heathkit Hero1 Robot in storage. I'll get it going when your granddaughter gets a bit older to enjoy it. Glad you got to meet her before you passed. Miss you so much.
Wow! Thank you for sharing to us. R.I.P to your Dad. #Believe - Ahmed
Sounds like he left a lot of good memories for you and your family which are cherished. Hope he rests in peace and you and your family are well, safe and happy.
May he rest in peace. Stay strong!!
Dads are the hands that lift you up to see tomorrow!
Your Dad passed on 11 days after my Dad.
Stay strong my friend!
@@troyezell5841 - He had a great morning, normal routine, he wasn't in the best of heath, heart problems etc..., we knew it was just a matter of when... then after about 4 hours he wanted to take a nap... His last words were "just give me 5 more minutes". We all sat around him and said "no problem Dad, take a nap when you want to".
5 Minutes later he was gone.
My Mom later said, I don't think he was talking to us, I think he was talking to St. Peter.
Never be a master. A master can no longer grow. Remain a student.
Love it! ❤️😊 #BELIEVE - Ahmed
Bullshit
Be a master but have the mindset of a student
Be a winner. Stay humble and hungry.
Great IDEA
Sir Branson asked, "How do you motivate your people?" ................answer, "I only hire motivated people!"
Woot #Believe 💛😊 - Dondon
Gold
Branson only hires direct reports for last 20 years. HR has done so since, so he doesn't hire motivated people, HR does. His name might be there, but he manages almost none of his businesses personally.
@Grant Spork. Typical horse manure! Management tales that get passed around and will never work in Technology. Jobs understood one KEY secret to tech and that is talent. The great software engineers are not 10x, not 100x, more like 1000x better than good software engineers. And, they are not interested in platitudes like this. Which is why when talent leaves, technology firms die. Just follow the talent.
@@bigmoose143 Very egotistical comment. Musk seems to run on that mantra, and has out paced most of his competition. Will technology and AI reduce the ego driven software engineer? Manure is needed to grow things well!
Steve Jobs was spot on, driven, and annoyed traditional types to no end. I mean, seriously, how can you expect excellence from a mediocre workforce? They have to be inspired, motivated, and able to share a common vision, which Steve provided.
💛😊 #BELIEVE - Ahmed
"If you're a great person, why would you want to work for someone that you can't learn anything from?"
💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
no-one ever learnt anything from Jobs, he rode solo - everyone who's ever worked at Apple knows that. He has the spin, but management had to create products and release them, not Jobs.
@JigaYan guessing you've watched the movie and bought into the lie, rather than talked to people who he treated like slaves and 3rd class citizens, to him pretending apple invented anything himself. Even his famous turtle neck was designed by someone else.
There is nothing in 2021 that is inspirational about this man who used Samsung to 'wow' the world with THEIR technogy branded 'apple'. Seen any innovation in the last 15 years of apple... #zero
The sad thing is that people don't want to hear the truth about management or leadership. You shouldn't have to tell them what to do; they should be passionate enough that they thrive on growing, learning, and duplicating their knowledge with true empowerment for their employees, not just delegation and distribution of work.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Buz. :) #BTA389 Shine
The problem is that one bad "apple" (if you will) ruins the bunch. For every passionate, self-motivated person you have on your team, there's probably (at least) two lazy entitled ones that don't pull their own weight. They ruin the dynamic for the good people on the team because they require policing. Thing is, micromanaging is NEVER EVER the answer, though!
Buz Jacobson show me a job first where it's worth investing my passion and love in it.
zeus1117 Look where you passion and love is... you might find what you're looking for there.
TheEndTrend not if you hire better people, also you can be fired for constantly having to be reprimanded
I think I learned more about management and recruiting in this ~4 min video than an entire class on Leadership Efficiently
Awesome! Glad that to know Manu. Thanks for watching. 💛😊 #Believe - Ahmed
@@EvanCarmichael yes I feel the same as Manu.
Smart leaders employ people smarter than them.
Thanks for watching! #Believe - Feb
Unfortunately those people might be motivated but work for a dumber person
screw that...you need people to show up and work, not sit around thinking "I'm smarter than the owner"
@@andrefecteau You obviously aren't smart enough to realize the true workings of the world. Skills differ, utilize the most efficient candidate for the job and you will have better results than the competition.
@@sarahnvanweeren6139 umm I'm a millionaire and scratch golfer..what are you? Troll baby? You are spouting "conventionalism" and obviously your net worth is less than zero and have a shit job? Right?
I’m a manager at my company and I can say for sure there have been times I managed poorly. I think the key is to be able to admit to yourself when something is not working so you can figure out why and make the necessary adjustments.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for watching. 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
Steve was lightyears ahead of his time. Everybody wanted to work for him.
Thanks for watching! #BELIEVE❤️😊 - Ahmed
he absolutely trashed his Chinese workers, they committed suicide occasionally. like your Mac?
@@Applecider-Poetry Do tell us “all about Steve...”
(this is merely for a cheap laugh, as you clearly didn’t know him, nor know anything about him;
but your “skill” (singular!) clearly does consist of “proficiency in tossing out ‘expertise’ wherever Google ‘products’ permit... 😳😖🥴)
>> Intelligent inference: Jobs implicitly had ZERO tolerance for - no, it never would occur to begin with - the abhorrent sh!t produced by the Chinese sweatshops like Foxconn that Team Crook (“Tim Cook”) uses to mass-produce the garbage pawned off on us as (cr)Apple ‘hardware’.
For you (or anyone) to make such an absurd, wildly false, and typical blanket-statement is nothing more than psychobabble espoused by lobotomized liberals who know nothing about running a business, let alone a once-peerless one like Jobs’s Apple, let alone possessing logic and intellect inherent in the rest of us.
I could site, as one of infinite examples, ...
But “logic and reason” again are irrelevant in dealing with dolts like you. With deadbolt accuracy, I KNOW you are among the Darwin Awards who, for example, call our former President (Trump) a “racist,” despite him not ONCE making a “racist” statement.
Unlike yourself.
To suggest “look up the definition of ‘racist,’ then have you properly use the term, falls under the “logic/reason/basic intelligence” thingy, again irrelevant for those with cranium packed with anti-IQ.
Same with Elon musk today
He was a tool
Funny how Apple released ProDOS, AppleDOS, MacOS, System7, Lisa 7/7, MacWrite/Paint/Draw, HyperCard, etc. without Agile, scrum, sprints.
😂 😂 😂 #Believe - Ahmed
Not that funny considering they hadn't been invented yet
Steve Carter That's what I meant, we don't need soul-sucking sprints and useless consultancy buzzwords
Exactly we’ve switched to scrum for 10 years now and it absolutely sucks. It might be ok for sub par resources. But for passionate creative people agile is nothing but 100% managerial policing. The exact opposite of what Steve Jobs was talking about :(. This and the open office layout, one can’t even breathe now.
When working with small teams, you don't need all those overreaching and overbearing methodologies for managing code and platforms.
Every single word he said was so real. Nothing has really changed at all in 30 years, bozos everywhere.
You are one of them
@@JK-vc7ie aw mannn you killed him
bezos*
Correct
@@JK-vc7ie added the number in 2
2:05 "They knew how to manage.. but they didn`t know how to do anything."
Wise words.. very true. That's the key element why usually managers are just there to be a pain in the ass and not being of any real help.
From my personal experience, it can be seen from a slightly different angle: They choose to (or had to, didn't really have a choice) be managers, precisely because they never were good at actually delivering (doing) anything of value.
+joetube01 i find this to be very true. The corporate world is absolutely infested with people like this and for whatever reason, rather than getting these useless "bozo's" some training in order to be more useful, the companies they work for continue to just keep them there allowing them to be useless.
Basically, a summary of Canadian banks.
There will always be transactional junior workers who need a constant eye on. There is no need for managers for knowledge workers. If one finds themselves needing to be managed, they are definitely transactional and dependent.
Amy Ee
almost anyone can be that type of manager. Great companies want managers who can do that and yet offer much more to the company and the team they manage.
Amy Ee 100% agree with what you say.
Embracing yourself, is the beginning of life, you can start from anywhere with anything with nothing and do anything.
100% agree. Thanks for watching ❤️😊 #BELIEVE - Ahmed
If your dad is a millionaire, like Jobs and Gates... they started in their garage, their 1+ million dollar house garage... with parts and stuff paid for my their millionaire PARENTS...
This is exactly what I go through. I work in construction as a Project Manager and degree never gets the job done. Those who did well in my company were those who are passionate, motivated and wanting to better themselves and guess what they have no degree and/or credentials but they have grit.
Agreed to that. Success requires Determination, Skill, Passion, Discipline And #Believe in yourself. 😊 - Feb
I can never be passionate or motivated about what I do while working for someone else/company. Why should I work my but off when i take home maybe 5% of what I bring in? It’s a joke and a trap.
@@Fat_Catt You are free to start your own business at your will. Noone is stopping you. However, your approach i find a little selfish. Business offers you the opportunity to grow at risk free, provides you with equipment, machinery, tools and other people and resources and customer network you may never be able to find alone or opening up your own business at start that easy. Therefore you can always keep up with other people communicate and perhaps make a great team rather than finding working for someone else or a company a joke or looking at what you bring only and not the broader picture of what you also gain.
@@user-nj4ko2lq9u you are right. That is a great way of looking at it. I was being too negative.
2:17 is exactly what Plato said about who should be the ruler of a country or a civilization *The Philosopher King*. Not someone that wants to rule. If someone wants to rule, that means that individual wants power. However, an individual that does not want to rule, but has to because it is better for everybody that way.

Steve Jobs Jony Ive took away the g keys
If you try to be like Jobs you will fail. My take away is - he created his own approach through trial and error and a willingness to change.
Thank you for sharing with us and thanks for watching. :) #BelieveNation #BTA655 Luka
sure. Be yourself.
I don't think anyone should try to emulate his managerial style, he was at the right place at the right time, he was able to get away with the things he pulled, the vast majority of us will not.
@Roshni Rampadarath lame quote, where did you find that in the secret
Okay. So, the part I disagree with is at 0:58 where engineers talk about their recruitment standards. it's one thing to have passion - but to give a person a tough grilling from 9AM until dinner time (and even past that)? That may have worked in the mid 80's - but not anymore. Times have moved on, and in fact, right now, we are in the middle of the "Great Attrition". No longer will you get the Great engineers with "cap in hand" begging for a job, and willing to sell their soul. They are motivated by a mission which resonates a sense of purpose to what they're trying to achieve - but not to the extent that they deny the existence of a life outside of work, or their entitlement to their fair ration of dignity and self-respect.
Apple and others would have been really exceptional if they had the integrity to manufacturer in their own country.

Having been in both the military for a short time and the private sector, the term leadership by example transitioned well to the private sector. However going from the private to the state was an eye opener as they would allow you to do all the work of your team if that’s what you wanted, but also allowed slackers to be promoted. I think Jobs made a difference because he made people feel like they were a part of creating something bigger then themselves
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for watching. 😊 #Believe - Feb
What do you mean by "transitioned" here; "[T]he term leadership by example transitioned well to the private sector."
@@ghostbuster8894 "transitioned well" means "applied as well". Leadership by example was used in the military, and the commenter above realized it also worked well in the private sector
Looks like he just wanted passionate people who were ready to innovate not people who just wanted paycheck.
Nobody wanted a bigger paycheck than Steve. Let’s not forget that.
@@JK-vc7ie because god forbid the man who took all the risk receive a reward.
he wanted people who could create and he could take the credit, just like many other ecomaniacs before him. Without Samsung he'd have no ipod, iphone, and many other tech products, the reason why apple stopped innovating when Samsung started producing competing products... #surprise, the innovation came from Asia, not Jobs, not apple.
@@chrisdawes7270you have no clue what you are talking about lol none what so ever iPhone was before android lol they were the very first touch screen phone Steve jobs sued android for copyright infringement and apple won but yea and the ipod was the first digital mp3 player that could fit 1000 songs in your pocket
If only more people running companies understand what Jobs understood about managers and bozos...
Thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts dysonlu. :) #Believe #BTA475 Shine
Our Country Manager is a bozo. He has closed two areas due to poor performances, the area he is based on is on life-support (company has been propping it up as a flagship store), and we are the last area that is bringing any real profit, which means we get only pressure and stress to do more...and the best part his people in his area earn 50% more. Real fair. And what happens when everything goes belly up? I was told he will resume being the expansion manager for the area. Lol? All of his stores are closed and he is still in charge of expansion? LOLL. If that does not describe how f'ed up this company is, then I don't know what does. He had LOTS of experience and specialization in expanding a restaurant before coming into our business. But wait the kicker. Our business has nothing to do with restaurants.
@@makomichael Wow.
Seriously, that’s the best (and most accurate!) “management description” I’ve ever heard.
I won’t forget your words! 👍😎
You mean how to demean your own team, steal their ideas, rip them off and ruin their lives? Jobs was a Monster. His own family hated him for good reasons.

Embedded software dev here...
I have worked at two companies with very motivated engineering departments... But...
The first company I worked at, management placed new fancy features at highest priority, where security and stability features where always of lowest priority.
Due to understaffed, 'low priority' is the equivalent of 'happens never'. Meanwhile the same management that creates the prioritization kept asking 'why the companies product' was so unstable and of bad quality.
The second company I worked at was even a bigger mess.
1. Nobody there (wanted) to understand the difference between 'embedded & front-end' developers. Even after explaining it like 20 times or so.
2. The mentality of prioritizing form over function. Where I had to waste 75% of my development time trying out each color in a color pallet until the graphical artist knew what he actually wanted.
3. Management giving the engineering department only 6 month's for a 10 month long project. Management also moving 50% of the engineering department staff to another project only 2 months later.
4. Management breaking one of the two prototypes only 3 weeks before deadline ('6' month long project), by trying to plug a mini USB cable into a micro USB slot, ripping the connector (including traces) of the circuit-board.
5. Management approving the designers and graphical artist to disassemble our only (lasting) working prototype 2 weeks before deadline (same project as the previous point). Because of a little (barely visible) error in the paint job. Something they could have fixed 4 months prior. For all information, yes they broke this second (and last) prototype only 2 weeks before deadline.
6. Management blaming the engineering department of bad planning, after the engineering department saved the 'big vip showcase' by frankensteining together a third working prototype (in less than a week) out of the leftovers from the previous (destroyed) two prototypes. (my ex-colleague that still works there keeps the backup prototype in his car to protect it from this Idiocracy).
7. Management starting to outsource engineering because (in their opinion) the internal engineering department doesn't do a good enough job. Where outsourcing is making development actually 5 times slower than before.
As a student I would never have guessed my job would be like working for a bunch of mindless toddlers, who have their own head stuck up so far their own buttocks, they think they are geniuses.
Now I work for a small startup where there is no (real) management, only the founders (engineers) forced into the function of a manager. Amazing how efficient that is compared to (real) managers...
Thanks for sharing your story #Believe :) #BTA1507 Veljko
Fantastic video, full of great advice. So nice to see the team’s signatures inside the Mac.
Glad that you liked it. Thanks for watching 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
I work 23 years in software engineering. I have come to the exact conclusion and opinion. Most people in management positions are useless with no vision, no strategy, no connection with the environment, they just have a nice cv and they know how to talk. You bring them into your project and they become a liability and not an asset, in the sense that the project works better without them. Self management employees that are driven from a common vision are hard to find these days, not only because of lack of the right leadership, but also because it is difficult to find a company with such a culture and generaly because of lack of ethics.
Thank you for sharing, much appreciated. 😊 #Believe - Feb

This got put in my recommendations, & perfect timing, honestly. I got hired at Apple 3 months ago, & even within this crazy pandemic -- I see how dedicated everyone is. Brilliant people, everyday, wanting to put the extra time in just to make things up to their standard. It's both exhausting & inspiring lol.
Good for you man.. god bless, keep up the great work!
are you still at apple?
@@ProgrammingP123 nope, no longer there. It was cool, just not the team I wanted to be on. Can’t really move around easily there either.
Please, can someone explain this contradiction??
Steve Jobs said that when Apple got big and to the point where they think that they can hire professional managers, he called them bozos because "they could manage, but they didn't know how to do anything. If you're insanely great, why would you want to work for someone that you can't learn anything from?" THEN, it cuts to the scene with the MBA literature major on the Macintosh team who is now working as a manager for manufacturing, whom has no experience in manufacturing.
Even though she's not a professional manager, she also does not know how to do anything in that field. She is an insider, and has highly organizational skills, but I don't see how that's much of a bump up (if it even is a bump up) than a professional manager that doesn't have any real experienced in that field and whom I'm sure is also highly organized just like her.
+Kenny Yee Embrace the #AND instead of seeing it as a contradiction. #BTA140
***** i'm confused
it could be that she has great communication skills and maybe she's a great team builder. It could be possible that Jobs didn't like "professional managers" because those types of managers are always bringing office politics into the work place and when you bring someone like that into a company like apple, it turns everything too political and stifles great ideas and innovation.
tanakattack is spot on.
GeoAl09
Management is not something you learn at a school. Many people are not organized, especially not specialists that are only interested in there field.

Hey Evan, I like your videos. I hired people based on personality traits, of course speciality mattered, such as accounting etc... what also mattered training and following up.

I've been brainstorming a "non-management" approach for my upcoming venture...after working for a large corporate (hierarchically structured) organization. Its overwhelming flaws did little but grind down potentially good associates. "...self managed...once they know what to do..." "The common vision of leadership..." It all starts with hiring the right people. This approach is a gem. Thanks for this confirmation video!
His assessment of 'managers' is on the mark: overpaid underachievers with too much power, not enough wisdom, and a mandate to micro-manage. Good people, properly and fully trained, given responsibility and accountability...trusted and empowered, uplifted through a common vision, and with transparent & infrequent verifications = a roadmap for all around success.

"You know who the best managers are? They're the great individual contributors, who never ever want to be a manager, but decide they have to be a manager because no one else is going to be able to do as good a job as them."
How true is that statement! In my working life I have noticed that the people who really want to be in charge are power-hungry, egotistical people. And the people who should be in charge are usually smart, hard working, introverts that never want those positions.

The single best video out of all that i have seen about Jobs.. The idea of hiring "generalists" (who go on to be insanely gr8 people) and dismissing specialists as bozos is what made apple Apple in the first place.. This was true in the early days of the company even before it got incorporated (in its days in the garage) up through the mid 80s and carried on even through the dark times of 90s at least in the engineering department. They always had great engineering and design talent even in the dark days. Thats because a lot (if not most) of engineering and design talent that had been there during the revolution of the company in the 70s and the mid 80s stuck around and carried on with the same old mantra, same ideologies that the place had once stood for. They continued hiring gr8 engineering and design talent like themselves. The infection was the upper executive people and managers. After Jobs's return, the company wiped out the so called "specialist" culture it had adopted in the upper managerial division in the 90s with bozo of CEOs and all the middle managers. The company from then onwards, resumed operating with the same philosophies it had had in the first place i.e. hire insanely gr8 people. And it still is true after he is gone..
Rahul Agarwal Thanks for sharing Rahul :)
I didn't hear the word "specialist" from jobs. I think that is your own philosophy.
Tech note: If you're using Audition's noise removal you will get these reverb trails. You can get rid of these by setting the FFT Size to the max 16384 setting and having the Noise Print Snapshots to at least half that value, say 8,000. If you are running an older version, put noise reduction lower and do a first pass backwards as htis hides the reverb trails as the compressor algorhythm tails off. Hope this helps and thanks for the historic upload :o)

What sucks is that there are managers at Apple that try to emulate his style but don’t understand it in order to do it correctly.

GREAT Strategies! passion innovation....wonderfully refreshing story.
Thanks for the comment and for watching Andrew. :) #BTA395 Shine
He is a great leader indeed. Yes he had flaws like all of us, but overall he shared his vision with others and his team made something that didn't have to ever be if he kept it to himself. I like that visionaries see many things, and a lot of them don't share their talents with the world. They make things only for themselves. He could have done this as well and went to work at a job, but instead he shared his gift. I admire what he did. I write my ideas in books knowing that I won't always be here, so I hope to leave my love to carry on when I'm gone.
His work will always endure even when haters one day stop hating. Let him RIP please. Luvu

Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts Nightrissa. Great points about Steve Jobs and great to know you are also taking action and doing what you love. All the best! :) #BelieveNation #BTA436 Shine
I think generally in good tech companies they seem to have more of a competency hierarchy than a power hierarchy (that might be more prevalent in other industries). This may be because in Tech, its easy to find out who does not know what they are talking about. And the self-policing culture Steve Jobs talks about ensures those people don't last. In banking infrastructure, in contrast...
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for watching. ❤️😊 #BELIEVE - Ahmed
Incredible footage. Thank you Evan!

thanks for this beautiful knowledge
They don't really want to manage but feel they have to because nobody else can do as good as them.....
Steve is right! By FAR the worst managers I've ever had were at a big tech company (you've probably heard of). The managers' names were John Halv__ (dublin) and Kelly Kra__ (austin) -- and they were definition of managers who want to manage people and had no skills themselves. They loved terrorizing people and literally would say "keep them on their heels -- and laugh". Micromanagement galore: for example, taking notes about who sat on the couch in the office, or if you brought your guitar into the office to prevent it from cooking in the car and didn't even play it, they would book an intervention to talk about your 'professionalism'. what? this is a big tech company. on other teams, people don't wear shoes, and they come in at 10AM. but on their team, 7AM "butts in chairs". unbelievable. sociopaths. It took 3 years of trips to HR, and dozens of people quitting before we pushed them out. The team is now doing fantastic without them, even more productive than before. Turned out (surprise surprise), the team didn't need their 'management'. The team was about 40 people....times 3 years....that's 120 human-years of suffering all for nothing.
Sorry to hear that. Thanks for watching ❤️😊 #Believe - Ahmed
Excellent persuasion is the only skill that a manager actually really needs.
This sounds like the environment of the USPS. All the managers and supervisors are complete bozos and are a waste of space.
I was just talking to my husband about something similar. He was trying to suggest process, micromanage, etc. I told him to set down the goal, define the finish-line, and let that person figure it out. (He was talking to a type A adult who is not in our nuclear family.) I told him he can micromanage me and our kid, but not other people. I'm still hoping he gets it.
Thank you for sharing that with us, we wish you both best. 😊 #Believe - Feb
thank you Evan Carmichael for posting steve jobs videos, i'm big fan of steve. and please make videos like this about steve
We have Top 10 series over him, two volumes, here are the links: czcams.com/video/eHzAtxW3TzY/video.html and czcams.com/video/cj9U6CLfipc/video.html Thank you for sharing and thanks for watching! :) #BelieveNation #BTA438 Luka
A great leader is everything for a company! There are so many insights we can learn from Steve Jobs, thanks for sharing Evan. I make sure we hire the best so that our company continues to grow and investing in our people so they can reach their full potential. The people are our business! :)
You're welcome, glad you liked it. Appreciate the love and support thank you. #Believe - Feb
Very informative and great videos you have over on your channel!
listening and watching him is an experience in itself!
Agree! :) Thank you for the comment Aditya. #BTA167 Shine
Great video. I see many people have commented with the same question I have -- what is the original source of this video? You have replied to all that it's in the description box, but I am seeing what all of the rest of them noted -- that it isn't in the description box. Can you please provide some information on where this came from and how we might view it in its entirety? Thanks!
Thanks for uploading such an inspirational video🙏
Glad you're feeling inspired! Thanks for watching! 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
THATS WHY WE CALL HIM LEGEND
+P. Vivek thanks for watching. #BTA142 Nina
Best management video ever
Glad you enjoyed it :) #BTA921 Luka
On People"we want people who are INSANELY GREAT,-who had a PASSION .
On manager's "they knew how to manage, but they didn't know how to do anything". I value working with a team who can "do what is asked to do" and can "demonstrate" as well. What a visionary - why is this video not shown to the corporate world for simple logical leadership training?
thank you Evan!
You're welcome Ryan. Much love. 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
Steve jobs and i went fishing once in 1993. He loved flounder
Really? That's awesome :) #BTA1407 Veljko
Notice how he was the only one who didn't have hair or clothing that dated him to his decade. Good style is timeless.
Thanks for sharing! 💛😊 #Believe - Dondon
Yes, it’s true! Also, if you look at pictures of Hunter S Thompson from the 60’s he doesn’t look like a person from the 60’s (hair and dress)
look at the album covers of enrique iglesias (and most of his music videos). he wears generic clothing like steve did. and YES you can date his clothing and hairstyle. people did not wear open collar business shirts in the early 1900s. they wore suits and those hats. anything can indeed be dated.
I came to this video from Simon Sinek. "People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it." and then hearing about Jobs talk about leadership = vision, it rings true!
Thanks for sharing and for watching. 😊 #Believe - Feb
Priceless.
Recognition touch, loved it!

Great video, but would have loved your commentary at the end like on some of your other videos for these segments.
Psych2go Thanks for the suggesiton :)
Psych2go no wayy I'm a big fann
Wow, never expected to see you here!
I think its good this way but like just add some subtitle commentary like Evan's own thoughts. I believe most people watch this because of Steve Jobs himself and his persuasive talking ability (body language and speech)
respectfully disagree. this was perfect as-is
Steve named external managers by bozzos and that they don t know anything( thats True most of the time). But we do always need great managers Who have the passion in the vision of the company . John Sculley the ex manager in pepsi Cola was the one Who saved Apple at a time. He was recruted by steve Who persuaded him just by ' Will you pass your whole life selling water and sugger, or Will you work for something that Will change the world'
Amazing story, thanks for sharing this one. #BELIEVE - Ahmed 💛😊
Great! Evan, thank you!!!!!!

Raquel Stewart Awesome Raquel :)
Mind-boggling stuff! Amazing! Very helpful.
Thanks for watching ❤️😊 #Believe - Ahmed
Just gotta remember two things: 1) that you don't manage people - you lead them, and 2) in spite of all the employment matching methodologies that exist, very few people get into positions that fit them as well as described here. From the candidate side - ya gotta eat, ya gotta pay the bills... As a long time and extremely successful hiring sales manager I followed legal guidelines and company policy of course. After that I went for sharp people with work ethic and personality. Monk instead of TO, for example. I had stupefyingly low turnover for a sales department, and those veteran, happy employees produced consistently at a very high level.
🙌 #Believe - Feb
what is the name of the documentary this clip is from? pls kindly put in the description!
I also want to know
Hello! Apology for the late response. The best way to get a personal answer from Evan is to ask him live on his new gaming channel. He goes live weekdays at 6 pm EST if he’s not traveling.

Thank you for watching. 😊 #Believe - Feb
I have a young man lodging at my house and is a friend of the family, he works for a call centre I referred him to, but lord do I see this lad as a total inspiration for his passion, and although I don’t know much about technology, I do know he knows more than me, but I can see the basics of this great young man being everything a great company would ever want. I can’t put my finger on every attribute he has but I know one day, through his core values, he will make it not just big but immense. He’s just that good. And I’m a fkn cynic to the core
Thank you for sharing that with us Roberta. 😊 #Believe - Feb
Powerful!
I find it kind of ironic that Steve Jobs said don't hire professionals and then hired John Sculley who got him fired.
+maclovindotca sometimes you don't always take your own advice :) #BTA95
Youre mistaken. Jobs didnt want Scully to be CEO, jobs wanted jobs to be CEO. But the board didnt think he was mature enough and so they looked for a "professional" that the shareholders would be happy about.
Sculley didn't really get Jobs fired. Jobs basically fired himself because he wasn't willing to having someone else in charge. Sculley didn't want him to leave. But, Jobs was unwilling to not act like the CEO.
@@felpswa123 No Sculley did not fire Steve. However a decision concerning the mac and marketing went up to the board and Steves idea lost, the board sided with Sculley. Steve hired Sculley to mentor him because he was not a seasoned CEO, plus I he did not want that role right then he wanted to help hands on to build computers in projects.
@@tombjornebark I don’t think that’s quite right. My understanding is that Sculley was hired by the board, who preferred someone external over Jobs in 1983. Jobs had already been forced from the CEO position in 1980 when Apple became a public company owned by shareholders. Jobs wanted the payout from going public but not to be controlled by shareholders. Quit when it became clear that he couldn’t have his cake and eat it too.
I'm interested to know how the manufacturing department changed after Debbie took over. Did it improve, or did it just run the way Steve wanted it to?
I'm sorry I don't know but thanks for watching. ❤️😊 #Believe - Feb
Apparently she stayed with Apple until 1992 and was promoted all the way to CFO, so it appears she was able to continue proving herself under the John Sculley administration, well long after Jobs had left. She made a ton of money and became an angel investor through the 2000s, but died last year.
Job's genius was marketing above all else, and he was perhaps the master salesperson of his generation.
💛💛 #Believe - Feb (from Evan's team)
Definitely totally am agree with! Fantastic good ideas🌹
Glad you liked it. Hope it helps! 😊❤️ #Believe - Feb
Pardon my language.. But i agree with every last F@#%ing thing mr jobs said.
I have constantly found that managers largely are idiots. Ive had to become a manager for the sole reason because i known what needs to be done and i get it done because everybody else is well frankly getting in the way.. I have great respect for leaders and managers whom i can learn from not idiots whom have been given a job because there cv has a good uni on it or daddys contacts set them up in the job.
We need do'ers and know'ers not mani'grs.
OnlyKnowsGod Thanks for sharing :)
god only knows I agree. I have been with different companies and the managers did nothing but micromanage everything but they could never do the job themselves, nor did they even know what the job entailed. I see this more from the midwest than the west coast. The west coast has more innovation, they take risks and get smart, ambitious people. The midwest continues to be behind because they continue to follow a safe route that is not working anymore and where nepotism and good ol boy beliefs still rule.
+ god only knows the truth
So everyone else sucks and you are one of the rare superstars. Right.
Excellent video, thanks for posting. Jobs may not have been right about everything regarding management, but he certainly hit some key ideas that most organizations are missing. Dull, uninspiring management is everywhere. One criticism I have though is that his team was pretty homogenous.
