A carta de Steve Jobs renunciando o cargo de CEO da Apple

Ontem no final da tarde os Trend Topics “bombaram” com a renuncia de Steve Jobs como CEO da Apple. É uma grande pena, mas infelizmente a saúde de Jobs é muito mais importante do que continuar gerenciando a Apple. Por outro lado, ele ainda vai continuar na “ativa”, no que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento dos produtos.

Confira abaixo a carta de Steve Jobs para o conselho da Apple:

To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:

I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.

I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Steve

Só podemos torcer para que ele consiga superar essa terrível doença que é o câncer, e que a Apple consiga fazer um bom trabalho para substituí-lo, se é que isso é possível.
