• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Kaum eine andere Marke wird derart mit Innovation verbunden wie Apple. Wie viele andere Produkte gibt es schon, die ohne Rücksicht auf etwaige Fehler und den Preis bereits vor Erscheinen nachgefragt werden? Apple steht wie kein anderes Unternehmen für Innovationen - und maßgeblich verantwortlich dafür ist der sagenumwobene CEO Steve Jobs. Carmine Gallo hat die sieben Grundprinzipien herausgearbeitet, mit denen Steve Jobs zum innovativsten Unternehmer wurde:
- Tue nur, was du liebst- Hinterlasse einen starken Eindruck
- Schalte deinen Verstand auf Vollgas
-Verkaufe Träume, nicht Produkte
-Sag nein zu 1000 Dingen
-Sorge für verrückte, großartige Erlebnisse
-Beherrsche deine Botschaft
Für alle, die wissen wollen, was perfekte Innovation und absolute Kreativität ausmacht - und diese selbst anstreben.

Inhaltsangabe

Introduction: Why Steve Jobs?
Chapter quote: "Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower." Steve Jobs
Principle One: Do What You Love (Think different about your career and your business)
Chapter quote: "My goal wasn't to die the richest man in the cemetery. It was to go to bed at night saying, we've done something wonderful." Steve Jobs
Principle Two: See Genius in Their Craziness (Think different about your customers)
Chapter quote: "Some people think you've got to be crazy to buy a Mac. But in that craziness, we see genius." Steve Jobs
Principle Three: Sell Dreams, Not Products (Think different about your products)
Chapter quote: "We sell tools to unleash your personal creativity." Steve Jobs
Principle Four: Offer New Experiences (Think different about the buying experience you offer your customers)
Chapter quote: "People don't want to buy personal computers. They want to know what they can do with them. In the Apple store, we'll show them." Steve Jobs
Principle Five: Say No to 1,000 Things (Think different about marketing and product design)
Chapter quote: "I'm as proud of what we don't do as I am of what we do." Steve Jobs
Principle Six: Master the Message (Think different about communicating the vision behind your service, product, company or cause)
Chapter quote: "A key Jobs business tool is his mastery of the message." Fortune Magazine
Principle Seven: Inspire Evangelists (Think different about your employees)
Chapter quote: "Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It's not about the money. It's about the people you have, how you're led, and how much you get it." Steve Jobs
One More Thing.. Expect Excellence from Yourself and Others (What Steve Jobs has in common with Henry Ford and other innovative entrepreneurs)
Chapter quote: "Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected." Steve Jobs
