Hypes, innuendos and captivating stories proceed every release of a new productCult-like following "The scenes I witnessed at the opening of the new Apple store in London's Covent Garden were more like an evangelical prayer meeting than a chance to buy a phone or a laptop. "– Alex Riley, writing for the BBC[168]CNBC CommentaryThey have supply constraints36% gross margin down from 40%in 3rd quarter80% 2012 revenue from new products sold Mid Sept to M/E OctLowest margin number they have come out with in a long timeCriticism that stock price is low and projection
Leadership - HankMindset: MANAGERIALHow to Implement New StrategiesWhat "Level" of LeadershipChief Executive Tim Cook compensation worth nearly $378 million last year, drawing a sharp contrast to the $1 salary traditionally earned by former CEO Steve Jobs 900k to 1.4M salary in 2012-Known for operations-Quiet and demanding-Cook has been known to show up in the cafeteria and sit down with employees, and has built a reputation as a workaholic who prefers biking over mingling with Silicon Valley types. An Auburn University graduate with an industrial engineering degree, Cook is a huge Auburn football fan and has a vast collection of Tigers memorabiliaHe believes more information and communication with customers is important; he’s willing to work with Wall Street (which has historically shown it understands very little about Apple); and he doesn’t seem to believe Apple’s privacy should be pursued at the expense of larger, more important goalsCook is willing to release less-than-perfect productReleasing buggy iPhone software wouldn't have flown under Jobs' leadership, say former insiders. 2. Wall Street loves himApple's stock has been skyrocketing ever since Cook took over as permanent CEO in August 2011. Cook has already issued a dividend and has demonstrated a clear willingness to communicate with Wall Street. By contrast, Steve Jobs "always loathed investors and the stock market," says Jeffrey Van Camp at Digital Trends. "It's a subtle but significant change," says Lashinsky. "Investors now have the CEO's ear for the first time in years." 3. Values are shiftingCook is a "master of operational efficiency," having streamlined Apple's badly broken supply chain when he joined the company in 1998."He's brought in a lotof MBA-toting new employees to Apple," Some are starting to wonder if operational efficiency is becoming "more of a priority compared to engineering creativity." As a result, Apple has a more corporate feel to it overall. "It looks like it has become a more conservative execution engine rather than a pushing-the-envelope engineering engine." 4. The atmosphere is more relaxedUnder Cook, the company's culture is more easy going — a reflection of the new chief's even temperament
