Step inside the untold story of Apple after the passing of Steve Jobs — a story of power, ambition, and transformation. After Steve: How Apple Became a Trillion-Dollar Company and Lost Its Soul by Tripp Mickle reveals the internal struggle between two titans: Jony Ive, the design genius who gave Apple its soul, and Tim Cook, the operations master who built it into the most profitable company on Earth.

This video offers a detailed summary of After Steve, charting how the creative vision that once defined Apple gradually yielded to financial discipline and strategic control. You’ll see how Ive’s obsession with beauty and simplicity collided with Cook’s precision and profit-driven pragmatism — a quiet battle that reshaped not just Apple, but the very nature of innovation in Silicon Valley.

From the birth of the iPhone X to the rise of Apple’s billion-dollar services empire, from the construction of the monumental Apple Park to the emotional departure of Jony Ive, this story explores how a company that once “thought different” learned to think systematically. It’s a powerful reflection on what happens when artistry meets industry — and when a visionary culture gives way to a corporate machine.

If you’re fascinated by leadership, design, business strategy, or the psychology of power, this summary will open your eyes to the hidden decisions that shaped the world’s most iconic brand. Stay until the end to discover how Apple redefined success — not through invention alone, but through relentless execution.
