Measurable and quantifiable plans
Steve Jobs was a leader who set goals and objectives that were achievable. As a matter of
fact, he had a long time vision of coming up with a cubic computer. He had initiated this plan
when he began his next company but the plan came to completion in the year 2002 when he
entrusted a designer in Apple Company to make a cuboid computer that took the shape of a
power mark line (Howard, 33).
Steve Jobs was a transformational leader
Transformational leaders are usually vision oriented, motivating charismatic, and
encourage the intellectual advancement of their followers (Steinwart, 50). The leadership of
Steve Jobs as a transformational leader is shown by the charismatic personality he portrays. His
approaches were visionary because he added value by his desire to show to the public the future
of a commodity.
In terms of inspiration, and inspiration to the employees to give their best, Steve Jobs was
really a transformational leader (Steinwart, 50). It is evident that whenever he talked to his
workers of a new invention, not all workers saw it as a successful invention but he could work
along with the workers to convert the ideas into an invention. It was his leadership that
facilitated, inspired and motivated the Macintosh, iPhone, and iPad as Apple formed the systems
that made it a valuable commodity. He usually challenged his workers to get to nearly
unbearable goals and employed inspiring speeches to convey his ideas and motivate the workers.
