The quote from the interview that resonates most for me is at the very end, when Steve Jobs remarks: "The best ideas have to win. Otherwise good people don't stay."
There is something to be said about a CEO of one of the world's most valuable companies who attested to appreciating disagreement for the sake of advancing potentially disruptive ideas. There is the obvious benefit of #money in the form of increased revenues for the company by being the first to market a breakthrough product. Yet there is also the added benefit of retaining quality talent that further upholds a culture which celebrates ingenuity.
