Steve Jobs Resigns as CEO of Apple
Tim Cook Named CEO and Jobs Elected Chairman of the Board

CUPERTINO, California—August 24, 2011—Apple’s Board of Directors today announced that Steve Jobs has resigned as Chief Executive Officer, and the Board has named Tim Cook, previously Apple’s Chief Operating Officer, as the company’s new CEO. Jobs has been elected Chairman of the Board and Cook will join the Board, effective immediately.

“Steve’s extraordinary vision and leadership saved Apple and guided it to its position as the world’s most innovative and valuable technology company,” said Art Levinson, Chairman of Genentech, on behalf of Apple’s Board. “Steve has made countless contributions to Apple’s success, and he has attracted and inspired Apple’s immensely creative employees and world class executive team. In his new role as Chairman of the Board, Steve will continue to serve Apple with his unique insights, creativity and inspiration.”

“The Board has complete confidence that Tim is the right person to be our next CEO,” added Levinson. “Tim’s 13 years of service to Apple have been marked by outstanding performance, and he has demonstrated remarkable talent and sound judgment in everything he does.”

Jobs submitted his resignation to the Board today and strongly recommended that the Board implement its succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO.

As COO, Cook was previously responsible for all of the company’s worldwide sales and operations, including end-to-end management of Apple’s supply chain, sales activities, and service and support in all markets and countries. He also headed Apple’s Macintosh division and played a key role in the continued development of strategic reseller and supplier relationships, ensuring flexibility in response to an increasingly demanding marketplace.

Apple designs Macs, the best personal computers in the world, along with OS X, iLife, iWork and professional software. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store. Apple has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and has recently introduced iPad 2 which is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices.

    不是太慢,而是不知如何来表达。。。

    Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) 先简短来一句。大家评论吧。

    想起当年的apple II…
    天妒英才啊!才56岁

    Steve的成就咱就不用再说了。我想指出的是,Steve Jobs 最后一次参加公共活动不是iPad或iPhone,而是六月份去Cupertino市听证会请求市议会批准苹果新园区的计划。那时他肯定知道自己还能活多久了。

    一个快不久于世的伟大的CEO,为一个世界最大科技公司要在一个小城市造一个新园区,去市府提交计划。这个事情,恐怕只有在美国才会发生。

    要在TG任何一都,大概都是反过来市长上门去恳求他去造新园区了。

  14. chedan 于 2011-10-05 8:50 下午

    Cupertino大概只相当于帝都的海淀区吧。

  15. kevint 于 2011-10-05 8:54 下午

    比海淀区小多了

  16. chedan 于 2011-10-05 9:10 下午

    是啊。郭台铭去河南,省长亲自带队接机。可Steve Jobs 还得搏着老命颤颤巍巍的站在那儿,跟坐在高台上的区议员们对话。唉,体制不同啊。
