In 2011, Tim Cook took on an impossible task – following in the footsteps of one of history’s greatest business visionaries, Steve Jobs. Facing worldwide scrutiny, Cook (who was often described as shy, unassuming and unimaginative) defied all expectations. Under Cook’s leadership Apple has soared: its stock has nearly tripled to become the world’s first trillion-dollar company. From the massive growth of the iPhone to new victories like the Apple Watch, Cook is leading Apple to a new era of success.
But he’s also spearheaded a cultural revolution within the company. Since becoming CEO, Cook has introduced a new style of management that emphasizes kindness, collaboration and honesty, and has quietly pushed Apple to support sexual and racial equal rights and invest heavily in renewable energy.
Drawing on authorized access with several Apple insiders, Kahney, the world’s leading reporter on Apple, tells the inspiring story of how one man attempted to replace the irreplaceable and succeeded better than anyone thought possible.
Leander Kahney has covered Apple for more than a dozen years and has written four popular books about Apple and the culture of its followers, including Inside Steve’s Brain and Jony Ive. The former news editor for Wired.com, he is currently the editor and publisher of CultofMac.com. He lives in San Francisco.

Genio
Autobiografia ben dettagliata sulla vista di Tim. Consigliato.

Un elogio alla persona più che un’autobiografia
Da amante di tecnologia (fan Apple) e storie imprenditoriali, avevo grandi aspettative sulla storia dell’erede di Steve, ma purtroppo questo libro si è rivelato una delusione. Pochissima introspezione ed una sfilza infinita di achievements ed elogi che Tim ha ricevuto, francamente al pari di una pagina Wikipedia della persona. Peccato

Boring recap of press releases.No insight, no original research, nothing on the man, everything was already known in this book.
Balthasar Chromwell –
As a tech geek and apple fan I absolutely loved the book, because even though Cook is very important and a great CEO he is a very quiet, modest and privacy focused person so it is hard to find information about him. The author collected all the important hallmarks of Cookâs career for us, so we can learn about them in a comprehensive manner and discover what makes Cook, Cook. In 2021 itâs still a great read that I would recommend to every business and tech interested person.
