10 Powerful Quotes From TheSteve Jobs Movie And WhatThey Teach Us About Leadership
Ashton Kutcher portraying Steve Jobs
The script for Jobs the new movie starring Ashton Kutcher as the visionary
Apple co-founder is heavy with quotes that reflect Jobsrsquo business philosophy
and approach to life Irsquove interviewed the director Joshua Michael Stern and I
recognize most of Kutcherrsquos lines in the movie as being either direct quotes
from Steve Jobs or compilations of his quotes Here is my vote for the ten best
quotes from the movie and what they can teach us about leadership
creativity communications and success
According to Jobs film directorJoshua Michael
Stern Steve Jobs felt that life experiences were
critical to being creative Stern included pivotal
scenes in the movie showing a young Steve Jobs
taking a college calligraphy course and visiting India
with his friend Daniel Kottke ldquoAbsorbing culture
art and history were extremely important to Jobs
He believed in taking life experiences and using it as
a subtext for something else yoursquore doing like
helping to form the product yoursquore creatingrdquo said
Stern This is one of the most powerful success
principles we can learn from Steve Jobs a broad set
of life experiences is essential for creativity to
flourish
Steve Jobs didnrsquot hesitate to take risks If he wanted
something he would ask even at a young age
When Jobs was twelve years old he called up HP co-
ldquo1 Irsquom not dismissing the value of higher education Irsquom simply saying it comes at the
expense of experience
ldquo 2 The greatest artists like Dylan Picasso and Newton
risked failure And if we want to be great wersquove got to risk
it too

founder Bill Hewlett and asked for spare parts
Hewlett gave Jobs the parts and a summer job
ldquoYoursquove got to be willing to crash and burn If yoursquore
afraid of failing you wonrsquot get very farrdquo Jobs once
said ldquoMost people never pick up the phone and call
Most people never ask and thatrsquos what separates
the people who do things from the people who just
dream about themrdquo Irsquove rarely interviewed a
successful entrepreneur or CEO who hasnrsquot risked
failure In fact most successful people donrsquot even
see lsquofailurersquo they see a result that didnrsquot have the
intended outcome
Steve Jobs didnrsquot believe in focus groups Actually
he avoided them like the plague Jobs believed in
building great products that he would want to use
himself To a large extent he had a point For
example in 2010 how many of us would have asked
for a third device in between a laptop and a
smartphone Most people would never have asked
for an iPad but once millions of consumers saw it
they couldnrsquot live without it and it opened up
entirely new categories of business applications
When I spent one year researching a book on the
Apple Store I learned that Jobs revolutionized the
retail business because he asked better questions
For example Jobs did not ask ldquoHow do we build a
better store than our competitorsrdquo Instead he
asked ldquoHow do we reinvent the storerdquo Donrsquot do
things better do things differently
Ashton Kutcher likes this quote so much he used it
in a short speech at a recent award show explaining
that itrsquos one of the most profound things he learned
while preparing for the role as Steve Jobs The quote
itself is taken from a rare 1995 interview for the
Santa Clara Valley Historical Association The entire
clip is available here on YouTube The rest of the
quote is equally as profound ldquoWhen you grow up
you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live
your life and try not to bash into the walls too muchhellipthatrsquos a very limited life
Life can be much broader once you discover one simple factmdasheverything
around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than
youhellipshake off this erroneous notion that life is there and yoursquore just going to
live in it versus make your mark upon it Once you learn that you will never
be the same againrdquo Donrsquot just live a life build one
Steve Jobs believed in dreaming big In the 1970s personal computers were
relegated to the hobbyist market Jobs had the vision of lsquoputting a computer in
the hands of everyday peoplersquo He once said that Xerox could have dominated
the entire computer industry because Xerox scientists in Palo Altorsquos PARC
research facility were developing the first graphical user interface Jobs said
Xerox failed because its ldquovisionrdquo was limited to making another copy machine
Never underestimate the power of a bold vision to move your career and the
world forward
ldquo 3 How does somebody know what they want if they
havenrsquot even seen it
ldquo 4 Everything around you that you call life was made up by
people that were no smarter than you and you can change
it you can influence it you can build your own things that
other people can use
ldquo 5 I would rather gamble on our vision than make a lsquome toorsquo product

Debbie thanks for your insight I saw the movie and I think this is going to be a
good example of critics and audiences reaching different conclusions The
critics focus on events that were not covered in the movie mdash itrsquos going to be
hard to satisfy everyone with a life as rich as Steve Jobs They also say the
script is ldquolightrdquo I agree that itrsquos on the lighter side because itrsquos mostly Steve Jobs
quotes and things he said publicly That said for anyone who wants to achieve
more in life I found it inspirational Ashton Kutcher will surprise many
viewers too
Reply
This is quite an insightful article The quotes that yoursquove shared make you want to do and
think so much differently
I havenrsquot watched the movie lsquoJobsrsquo yet but Irsquove heard its an adaptation of the book by
Walter Isaacson I loved the book and hoping the movie is so much good too
Reply
Asha Irsquom so glad the article inspired you Steve Jobs challenged his team to do
things differently than the competition not just ldquobetterrdquo The book by Walter
Isaacson is not the basis of this movie however Therersquos some confusion The
book is being written into a film by the great Aaron Sorkin Canrsquot wait for that to
come out
Reply
9 is a necessity Without passion no amount of hard work and smarts will grant you
success You can tell the difference between a smart and savvy entrepreneur and a smart
savvy and PASSIONATE one The former will break at some point throughout the
inevitable obstacles of the process the latter will persevere because they see no other
way
Great article thank you

Heather 9 is critical for entrepreneurship and innovation to flourish Irsquom also
fond of 10 Irsquove been using it to close some of my keynote speeches like this
one to sporting goods retailers httpbitly14cWm9g

I am actually surprised with Ashton Kutcherrsquos performance on this film My favorite
quote will always be ldquoHerersquos to the crazy ones The misfits The rebels The trouble-

made me understand him more

I havenrsquot watched the movie lsquoJobsrsquo yet but Irsquove heard its an adaptation of the book by
Walter Isaacson I loved the book and hoping the movie is so much good too

Asha Irsquom so glad the article inspired you Steve Jobs challenged his team to do
things differently than the competition not just ldquobetterrdquo The book by Walter
Isaacson is not the basis of this movie however Therersquos some confusion The
book is being written into a film by the great Aaron Sorkin Canrsquot wait for that to
come out

9 is a necessity Without passion no amount of hard work and smarts will grant you
success You can tell the difference between a smart and savvy entrepreneur and a smart
savvy and PASSIONATE one The former will break at some point throughout the
inevitable obstacles of the process the latter will persevere because they see no other
way

7132014 10 Powerful Quotes From The Steve Jobs Movie And What They Teach Us About Leadership - Forbes
httpwwwforbescomsitescarminegallo2013081610-powerful-quotes-from-the-steve-jobs-movie-and-what-they-teach-us-about-leadership 38
The devilrsquos in the details and few people were more obsessed with details than
Jobs Wersquove all heard stories of Jobs driving his engineers crazy because he
didnrsquot like the aesthetic of something inside the computer that nobody would
ever see Everything mattered I recall visiting a cardboard box manufacturing
facility in Modesto California to prepare for a keynote speech to industry
executives This company made boxes for Apple products One factory
manager said out of the thousands of brands they made boxes for none were
more particular than Apple Steve Jobs demanded that the details of the box
the tactile design had to be just right The edges had to look and even feel a
certain way When customers opened an iPhone box it had to set the tone for
the experience Far too many people and businesses overlook the details and
the customer experience with the brand inevitably suffers Details matter
Jobs once said that what made the Macintosh great was the fact that the
people he chose to work on the system were ldquomusicians and poets and
artists and zoologists and historians who also happened to be computer
scientistsrdquo Itrsquos a profound insight that speaks to building creative teams
Today itrsquos common for many companies to overlook creative individuals
because they donrsquot fit in a hiring box Jobs didnrsquot just think differently he
hired differently See genius in diversity Hire outside your industry from time
to time
I considered Steve Jobs one of the worldrsquos greatest corporate presenters
because he always explained the problem that his product would solve The
introduction of iTunes Music Store in 2003 is perhaps the best example of
this approach In one presentation Steve Jobs turned around public opinion
convincing customers that it was in their best interest to pay for something
(songs) that they could otherwise get for free at the time In this video clip you
can watch Jobs demonstrate the ldquoupsides and downsidesrdquo of the status quo
followed by his ldquosolutionrdquo the 99 cent song on the iTunes Music Store Your
audience needs to understand the problem your idea solves Donrsquot leave them
guessing Explain it clearly
Steve Jobs believed that passion was a critical component of success He
talked about the role of passion constantly so itrsquos no surprise that this quote
would appear in lsquoJobsrsquo the film The 2005 Steve Jobs commencement address
at Stanford University has been viewed millions of times and itrsquos the event
where his thoughts on passion are most clearly articulated Jobs told the
graduates that day ldquoYoursquove got to find what you lovehellip Your work is going to
fill a large part of your life and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what
you believe is great work And the only way to do great work is to love what
you do If you havenrsquot found it yet keep looking Donrsquot settle As with all
matters of the heart yoursquoll know when you find itrdquo This could very well be the
greatest piece of career advice ever given with the exception of 10
This quote is the best advice Jobs ever gave to Disneyrsquos Chief Creative Officer
John Lasseter Well before he became Disneyrsquos chief animator Lasseter
recalls his first meeting with Steve Jobs after Jobs bought Pixar in 1986
Lasseter was working on a short film at the time and at the end of the
meeting Lasseter says Steve Jobs asked him to do one thing ldquoMake it greatrdquo
The short Tin Toy went on to win the first academy award ever given for
computer animation and set the foundation for what later would become Toy
ldquo 6 Wersquove got to make the small things unforgettable
ldquo 7 Herersquos to the crazy ones The misfits The rebels The trouble-makers The round pegs in
the square holes The ones who see things differentlyhellipthey change things They push the
human race forward And while some may see them as the crazy ones we see genius
ldquo 8 Yoursquove got to have a problem that you want to solve a wrong that you want to right
ldquo9 It [what you choose to do] has got to be something that yoursquore passionate about because
otherwise you wonrsquot have the perseverance to see it through
ldquo 10 In your life you only get to do so many things and right now wersquove chosen to do this so
letrsquos make it great

Story Lasseter has told the story publicly a few times most recently in this
emotional tribute at Disneyrsquos D23 Expo (the story begins at 830) Lasseter
said those three wordsmdashmake it greatmdashhave applied to every frame of every
Pixar movie he worked on
Is everything you do as great as it could be This could very well be the most
important question you ask yourself as a leader Your customers deserve
nothing less Donrsquot just make it make it great

the ones you note really resonate and inspire and itrsquos great wersquore able to experience them
in their original contexts in this film
Reply
Debbie thanks for your insight I saw the movie and I think this is going to be a
good example of critics and audiences reaching different conclusions The
critics focus on events that were not covered in the movie mdash itrsquos going to be
hard to satisfy everyone with a life as rich as Steve Jobs They also say the
script is ldquolightrdquo I agree that itrsquos on the lighter side because itrsquos mostly Steve Jobs
quotes and things he said publicly That said for anyone who wants to achieve
more in life I found it inspirational Ashton Kutcher will surprise many
viewers too

This is quite an insightful article The quotes that yoursquove shared make you want to do and
think so much differently
I havenrsquot watched the movie lsquoJobsrsquo yet but Irsquove heard its an adaptation of the book by
Walter Isaacson I loved the book and hoping the movie is so much good too
Reply
Asha Irsquom so glad the article inspired you Steve Jobs challenged his team to do
things differently than the competition not just ldquobetterrdquo The book by Walter
Isaacson is not the basis of this movie however Therersquos some confusion The
book is being written into a film by the great Aaron Sorkin Canrsquot wait for that to
come out

9 is a necessity Without passion no amount of hard work and smarts will grant you
success You can tell the difference between a smart and savvy entrepreneur and a smart
savvy and PASSIONATE one The former will break at some point throughout the
inevitable obstacles of the process the latter will persevere because they see no other
way
Great article thank you

I am actually surprised with Ashton Kutcherrsquos performance on this film My favorite
quote will always be ldquoHerersquos to the crazy ones The misfits The rebels The trouble-
makershelliprdquo Jobsrsquo story has always been an inspiration to me and watching this movie
made me understand him more
