Tim Cook salue le quatrième anniversaire de la disparition de Steve Jobs
C’est désormais une tradition chez Apple, chaque année depuis la disparition du charismatique co-fondateur de la marque, Tim Cook rend hommage à celui dont il a été décidé de laisser le bureau inviolé depuis le 5 octobre 2011.

Dans l’email envoyé aujourd’hui à sa “team”, Cook revient sur le caractère visionnaire du personnage, son rôle de leader, mentor et d’ami.
Ce message est avant tout une manière de rappeler aux équipes “le privilège et la responsabilité qui leur incombe de continuer le travail que Steve aimait tant” pour délivrer les “meilleurs produits sur terre, adorés par les clients”.
Tim Cook, continue ainsi d’honorer la mémoire du défunt fondateur et invite les nouveaux employés à demander autour d’eux qui il était vraiment… au même moment où l’on apprend que Laurene Powell Jobs souhaitait museler le cinéaste Danny Boyle pour son portrait trop caricatural de son mari…
Le texte intégral envoyé aux employés :
Team,
Today marks four years since Steve passed away. On that day, the world lost a visionary. We at Apple lost a leader, a mentor, and many of us lost a dear friend.
Steve was a brilliant person, and his priorities were very simple. He loved his family above all, he loved Apple, and he loved the people with whom he worked so closely and achieved so much.
Each year since his passing, I have reminded everyone in the Apple community that we share the privilege and responsibility of continuing the work Steve loved so much.
What is his legacy? I see it all around us: An incredible team that embodies his spirit of innovation and creativity. The greatest products on earth, beloved by customers and empowering hundreds of millions of people around the world. Soaring achievements in technology and architecture. Experiences of surprise and delight. A company that only he could have built. A company with an intense determination to change the world for the better.
And, of course, the joy he brought his loved ones.
He told me several times in his final years that he hoped to live long enough to see some of the milestones in his children’s lives. I was in his office over the summer with Laurene and their youngest daughter. Messages and drawings from his kids to their father are still there on Steve’s whiteboard.
If you never knew Steve, you probably work with someone who did or who was here when he led Apple. Please stop one of us today and ask what he was really like. Several of us have posted our personal remembrances on AppleWeb, and I encourage you to read them.
Thank you for honoring Steve by continuing the work he started, and for remembering both who he was and what he stood for.
Tim
