En 2011, el mundo de la tecnología fue testigo de un cambio histórico: la muerte de Steve Jobs, el visionario cofundador y director ejecutivo de Apple. Ante un futuro incierto, la empresa se encontró en una encrucijada. Fue en ese momento cuando Tim Cook, hasta entonces vicepresidente senior de operaciones, se hizo cargo del gigante de Cupertino. Este libro es un tributo a la destacada carrera de Tim Cook, explorando sus excepcionales habilidades como líder, su pasión por el diseño y la innovación, y su compromiso con la responsabilidad social y la sostenibilidad. A través de un análisis en profundidad de sus decisiones estratégicas y el impacto que tuvo en Apple y la industria tecnológica en su conjunto, descubriremos la mente de un líder visionario que marcó el curso de la historia. Nacido en Alabama en 1960, Tim Cook siempre ha demostrado un talento natural para la organización y la eficiencia. Su carrera en IBM, donde durante 12 años ocupó puestos de creciente responsabilidad, lo dotó de las habilidades necesarias para gestionar operaciones complejas a escala global. En 1998 se unió a Apple, ganándose rápidamente la confianza de Steve Jobs y convirtiéndose en un actor clave en la reestructuración de la empresa. En 2004, Cook asumió por primera vez el cargo de CEO, durante la ausencia de Jobs por problemas de salud. Esta experiencia lo preparó para el inevitable desafío que surgiría en 2011. Al asumir el rol permanente de CEO, Cook enfrentó el escepticismo de muchos que cuestionaban su capacidad para liderar Apple sin la figura icónica de Jobs. Descubra mucho más...

How American is Miss America? For Susan Supernaw, a Muscogee (Creek) and Munsee Native American, the question wasn't just academic. Throughout a childhood clouded by poverty, alcoholism, abuse, and a physical disability, Supernaw sought escape in school and dance and the Native American Church. She became a presidential scholar, won a scholarship to college, and was crowned Miss Oklahoma in 1971. Supernaw might not have won the Miss America pageant that year, but she did call attention to the Native peoples living largely invisible lives throughout their own American land. And she did at long last earn her Native American name. Chronicling a quest to escape poverty and find meaning, Supernaw's story is revealing, humorous, and deeply moving. Muscogee Daughter is the story of finding a Native American identity among the distractions and difficulties of American life and of discerning an identity among competing notions of what it is to be a woman, a Native American, and a citizen of the world.
