Description
In 1997, Apple was 90 days from bankruptcy and Steve Jobs had just returned. At WWDC, a developer stood up and told him: "You don't know what you're talking about."
The room went silent.
Why his reply is a masterclass:
He didn't defend the technology. He admitted the guy was right - OpenDoc DID do things nothing else did. But that's the trap.
Most founders fall in love with features. Steve's rule that saved Apple was: Start with the customer experience and work backwards to the technology. Not the other way around.
Business Lesson / Hack if you're building something:
Your product doesn't need to do the most things. It needs to fit into a cohesive vision that can sell $10B.
Here's the tip: Before you add any new feature, ask - "Does this make the customer experience 10x clearer?" If not, kill it. That's why he killed OpenDoc and built the iMac.
That mindset shift from tech-first to customer-first is why Apple went from bankrupt to $3T.
What part of his reply hit you the hardest?
This video includes original commentary and educational breakdown of Steve Jobs' 1997 WWDC Q&A.
