Are you in the Tim Cook replacement pool yet ? well hurry , all the good renewal are getting taken . While Apple ’s quarter can only be identify as bad for one companionship — Apple — the interrogative is ( somehow ) not whether or not Tim Cook should be interchange , but simply who should replace him .
write forThe Washington Post , Vivek Wadhwa explains“Why Tesla is the spark that Apple needs . ”(Tip o ’ the antlers toPaul Salzman . )
See , Apple ’s net announcement was “ dismal ” and “ it severely require to rethink its innovation mannequin and leadership , ” ergo Musk . That ’s pretty much the depth of the thought process there .
In the same period that Apple released the iPhone and successors , Musk developed two generations of humans - change electric vehicles …
Everyone repulse Teslas now . That much is sure enough true .
Well , OK , not everyone . But Wadwha has one ! And that ’s what really matter .
I have compare my Tesla Model S to a spaceship that travel on land .
I have also liken dogs to quat that barque .
How does one get a gig at thePostwriting rooter postal service about products that are laughably too expensive for 95 to 99 percentage of the world ? Seems like that would be pretty sweet . The Macalope likes Fabergé eggs . Maybe he could publish about those .
I consider it to be good than any Apple merchandise — because it is more complex , elegant , and better designed than anything that Apple offers .
Ah , so that extra $ 62,000 really gets you something , huh?Fascinating .
Would you also be surprised to see that Wadwha has met and interviewed Elon Musk ? It ’s a little world ! If you journey in first course of study !
This kind of simplistic math , Apple + Musk – Cook = AWESOME , is as satisfying to the human brain as astrology . It ’s also as wrong . Still , as clearly taken from the chocolate-brown paper cover of Wadwha ’s social studies account book ( with all the spunk and pointer ) as it is , it looks like adept liken to Trip Chowdhry ’s Cook replacement strategy , competently described byInvestor Place ’s John Divine .
Under Supreme Leader Chowdhry , Jonathan Rubinstein would assume Cook ’s chief operating officer title of respect , while Fred Anderson — who serve as AAPL CFO during the early day of the Steve Jobs - lead turnaround — would repay as Chief Financial Officer .
With all due respect , Chowdhry ’s note and proffer are utterly imbecilic .
That is literally the right amount of respect due Chowdry ’s Apple analysis . Rubinstein ’s likely way smarter than this furry salamander of absurd analytic thinking , but post - Apple his great skill was letting HP kill a perfectly o.k. operating system . brassiere - vo .
Remember , we note up front that Apple ’s quarterly solvent are only “ dismal ” forApple . Any other troupe — like , say , the companies that Musk or Rubinstein have run — could only daydream of results like that . Bringing in an outside CEO now would be like pull down your firm because you ’re tired of the colour .
