Les problèmes de santé de Steve Jobs, le PDG d’Apple semblent plus sérieux qu’indiqués initialement. Celui-ci annonce s’écarter ainsi de la direction d’apple au moins jusqu’en juin. D’ici là, Tim Cook, l’actuel COO, assure l’intérim.
Ça sent pas bon… La cotation de l’action apple a même été suspendu !
Personnellement, même si je ne suis pas un fan fou furieux d’apple, il faut reconnaître qu’Apple sans Steve Jobs, c’est un peu comme Virgin sans Richard Branson, ça manque sérieusement de peps et de saveur !
Voici la lettre que Steve Jobs a adressé à ses collaborateurs ce soir :
Team,
I am sure all of you saw my letter last week sharing something very personal with the Apple community. Unfortunately, the curiosity over my personal health continues to be a distraction not only for me and my family, but everyone else at Apple as well. In addition, during the past week I have learned that my health-related issues are more complex than I originally thought.
In order to take myself out of the limelight and focus on my health, and to allow everyone at Apple to focus on delivering extraordinary products, I have decided to take a medical leave of absence until the end of June.
I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for Apple’s day to day operations, and I know he and the rest of the executive management team will do a great job. As CEO, I plan to remain involved in major strategic decisions while I am out. Our board of directors fully supports this plan.
I look forward to seeing all of you this summer.
Steve
