While there isn’t a tech CEO I’ve met who would refute this simple truth, very few are able to embrace it, no less practice it. Why is that?
The Apple co-founder went on to attribute Apple’s success to a conscious decision to be a “market-led” company as opposed to a tech-led company. This seemed to be in Steve Job’s DNA. For the rest of us, we need to work at it. Sometimes I feel the most valuable service a marketing firm can offer a CEO is to keep them marinated in the wants, needs and perceptions of their public.
