The Apple Design Awards are a thing.

They just announced some 2017 ones recently.

Of course the point stands. Shareholders don't exactly care whether you win design awards unless it brings in cash money.

Hell with shareholders! They only care if the next guy is doing better than they are. It is because of shareholders Yahoo became a stagnant piece of Internet relic.

Mayer came in and played catch-up and succeeded.
