Há muito mais envolvido, e a epígrafe acima nos dá um forte indício de que a construção de um grupo empresarial de alcance global está para além dos interesses pessoais – herda-se um legado moral e de valores, que deve ser usado para o bem do maior número de pessoas, alcançando, numa perspectiva mais ampla, toda a sociedade e além dela.

Jobs: The Man Behind the Glass goes beyond the black turtleneck myth to uncover the ghost still flickering inside every screen. Because what he built wasn’t just a company.
