Flying High: How Kelleher Took Southwest to the Top

Perception remains that Jobs IS Apple
Whatever you want to say about Apple, it’s a brand that is considered one of the best. In the latest brandchannel’s brandjunkies 2009 report, Apple won accolades in several areas.

If you own a computer or read the news, you’ve probably heard of the “two Steves” – Jobs and Wozniak, who founded Apple Computers in 1976. Far less likely is that you’ve heard of Ron Wayne. He designed the Apple logo and along with Steve Jobs and Wozniak, was one of the original founding partners in Apple. Afraid that their new startup computer company would fail, Ron sold back his 10% stake in Apple for $800, only 12 days after he got it.
