Aside from the Apple 1 being the beginning of personnel computing the two innovators were able to capitalize on the fact that they were nobodies from nowhere and managed to intrigue the world with their product. They were viewed as a couple of guys that new computers and what they wanted form them. (1) Apple was initially incorporated as Apple Computer, Inc.

In NCIS they seem to portray ex members of the armed services in a negative connotation. I recently watched an episode about how a retired navy serviceman was wanted for the killing of his wife. At the end of the show they say he was sick with some bullshit disease that caused him to not remember things when he gets mad. And no matter what happens it always works out okay in the end. In most TV shows they do this for viewing purposes because no one wants to watch the machine run for a long time but by cutting time out they make it seem a lot more interesting to the regular person whose sitting at home watching the show.
But by getting Apple to focus on making just four computers, he saved the company. “Deciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do,” he told me. “That's true for companies, and it's true for products.” After he righted the company, Jobs began taking his “top 100” people on a retreat each year. On the last day, he would stand in front of a whiteboard (he loved whiteboards, because they gave him complete control of a situation and they engendered focus) and ask, “What are the 10 things we should be doing next?” People would fight to get their suggestions on the list.

When I spoke to my father about being a cosmetologist, he opposed completely and handed me a list of business degrees to choose from. I spent my freshman and sophomore year of college completely hating the business school which my father had forced me to attend to. This past summer, I failed my first course, Microeconomics. So here I was, hating my future accounting degree, hating economics, hating management, failing classes, but most of all hating the fact that I was struggling with something I did not want to do at all much less for the rest of

CEO’s are an embodiment of their corporate brand. (Argenti, 2013, p.54) At the time of the Disney’s America project, the CEO of Disney was Michael Eisner. Eisner admitted to these missteps in his 1998 memoir entitled Work in Progress. From the naming of the project “Disney’s America”, which led to the perception that Disney owned American history, to the proximity to the Manassas Battlefield Park, the project began doomed to failure. Many critics speculate that the reason for reputation damaging miscommunications is due to the passing of Disney chief of corporate communications, Erwin Okun.
