A Study Of Power And Influence In The Modern World

The Rise Of Bill Gates (Microsoft) and Steve Jobs (Apple).

I am studying power and influence these days. And, I found this video about two of the most powerful people in the world of computing.

The world's most powerful people in the world of computing.

  • Where did they get their power from?
  • How did it actually happen?

This is the story behind the story. This is a story of independent thinking. Changing the world and making a difference is the underlying is the driving force. Take a look…

  • Curiosity is key
  • Learning the quickest ways to solve a problem
  • Being innovative

Was it the computer? The thing itself?

Or, was it the thinking behind how to use the computer in the real world that made this all work.

If you listen closely you will see the step-by-step cycle for creating a fortune.

  • Plug into already existing infrastructure
  • Plug into the wave before the wave has grown to be significant

Learn these skills:

  • Deal Making
  • Persuasion Skills
  • Leadership
  • Learn who influences the people that you want to have on your team.
  • Get the right people on your team

Know these disciplines:

  • Law
  • Business Engineering
  • Licensing
  • Royalty Arrangements
  • Innovation
  • Creativity

Understand The Areas Of Marketing and PR:

  • Public Identity Building
  • Press Release
  • Publicity

This is a other story. The inside story behind Apple and Microsoft.

This is a must see video.

Watch and learn,
