On the other hand, Steve Jobs was a college drop out, and didn’t code or engineer. Sometimes what you need is vision and the right people around you.

It’s my personal opinion but I think Steve Jobs is a really bad example of what makes a good CEO, as are several other people who essentially lucked out with a killer product in the right place at the right time.

The vast majority of businesses do not succeed that way. Because of the worship of people like Steve Jobs, though, they try. With bad consequences.
