Steve Jobs is CEO of the decade! -- according to Fortune Magazine, 2009

I totally agree. Together with Akio Morita (the founder of Sony), Henry Ford (founder of Ford Motor Company), Thomas Watson Sr (the 'father' of IBM), and Chester Carlson (the legendary founder of Xerox), Steve Job's work, dedication, innovation, vision, passion and ability to make great things happen is truly awesome! He's probably even CEO of the century!

CEOs that does "Business as usual" is amazingly boring. Those that does "Business Un-usual" is the one that is truly inspiring and fun. Through their continuous effort, amazing dedication and passionate work, not only they make great things happen, they also inspire the next (and next) generation to come, and change society for the better!

For such amazing accomplishment -- no matter how difficult or how 'impossible' situation was in the past, Steve Jobs is awesome. His string of groundbreaking, great, awesome achievements in the area of:

  • Personal Computer (Apple, Mac, iMac),
  • GUI based OS and software (MacOS),
  • Simple to use device (Apple, Mac, iMac, iPod, iPhone),
  • Music & Media (iPod), Smartphone (iPhone), 
  • Touch Interface (iPod Touch, iPhone),
  • Online Store (iTunes),
  • Retail Store (Apple Store),
  • Thinnest & Groundbreaking Laptop Design (MacBook Air),
  • Digital Movie (Pixar, ToyStory),
  • and ... perhaps (later) Tablet Computer ??

is really awesome! The world becomes so many steps better because of what he envision, persistently 'struggle to achieve', and does.

Bravo!! Triple salute to Mr. Jobs!
