In a 2003 interview, Apple Inc.’s late co-founder Steve Jobs revealed that his strategy for building successful teams was inspired by an English rock band, The Beatles.
While appearing on CBS’s 60 Minutes Overtime, Jobs compared the dynamics of the Beatles to effective business teams. He spoke about how the band members balanced each other’s weaknesses, leading to a synergy that resulted in innovative work.
“My model of business is the Beatles…they were four very talented guys who kept each other’s kind of negative tendencies in check…the total was greater than the sum of the parts and that’s how I see business,” Jobs stated.
He went on to say that similar to the Beatles, whose collective work was far superior to their individual contributions post-split, significant achievements in business are also the result of teamwork rather than individual effort.
“They did truly brilliant innovative work and when they split up they did good work but it was it it was never the same,” he said.
The Apple co-founder added that he is a firm believer in the power of a well-rounded team to achieve remarkable success, a principle he applied at both Pixar and Apple.
