Deep Dive: Was Tim Cook Actually Overrated?

from The Rundown Hosted by Public.com

In today's deep dive, Zaid takes a look back at Tim Cook's 15-year run as Apple CEO. We break down how Cook transformed Apple from a $350 billion company into a $4 trillion empire, his biggest wins including the services business and stock buyback program, his misses including the Apple Car and Vision Pro, and why Apple is falling behind in AI. We also look at who John Ternus is and why Apple chose him as the next CEO. And Zaid makes the case that despite all the success, Tim Cook might be a little overrated.
