Steve Jobs is one of the best examples of a strategic leader who is willing to invest in new innovative products and services, that are built on the concept of using existing technologies to create "customer and market" based businesses. The interesting thing is that even when he fails he admits his mistakes and tries again.
He is clearly the Thomas Edison of our time, since Edison always built on existing technologies and has his share of failures, along with major successes.
We need more innovative executives who practice the art and science of market based strategic leadership.
