The Rotten Apples of Steve Jobs

Streaming services love a good tech startup business story, preferably one featuring a quirky CEO devoid of self-awareness, with an oversized ego and grandiose sense of ambition and purpose, and one finger always resting on the self-destruct button. Hence Super Pumped, the story of Travis Kalanick and Uber, The Dropout, about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos, and WeCrashed, the tale of Adam Neumann and WeWork. In this episode of The In-House Ethicist,  John Paul Rollert reads his 2023 essay that saw one common thread between the three series: the echoes of the legendary Steve Jobs.
