The late Apple cofounder Steve Jobs has inspired a legion of entrepreneurs hoping to define the next era of business. Despite never meeting the tech legend, Intercontinental Exchange founder Jeffrey Sprecher hails Jobs as a “mentor,” and credited the pioneer for teaching him a critical lesson in career success.
“Steve Jobs was Apple, right? But he didn’t really write code or invent anything, Sprecher said recently at the Rotary Club of Atlanta. “He curated ideas that a lot of really smart people around him created. He just had good taste.”
