Sony and Apple. Two companies, both driven by pairs of individuals,
the technical genius, and the business saavy, or something like that.
Seems like that's the way to do it, because maybe to get both things
in one individual is impossible. So to do it in the least amount
of people, you need two. One to be the artistic, the mechanical, the
product. The other to be the wise, the product placer, the distributer,
the business leader. Producer and Salesman. Seems to work well for
Sony and Apple. Kind of anyway. The evolution of companies is always
a strange phenomenon, especially when it's originally driven by a pair.
It goes from innovation to just staying alive. Until they start innovating
again. Because it's the innovation that's cool. Something that hasn't
been done before, or at least not to the public's eyes. |
