Yeah, he just built a business from nothing to huge thrice, including the #1 by market cap company on earth.

Did you forget about the part where he was run out of Apple by its board? And Apple was not the #1 by market cap while he was alive.

It worked though. Apple is the most valuable American company when measured by market cap. That didn’t accidentally happen.

Steve Jobs is the canonical example of why CEOs matter and are well paid.

Steve Jobs is the exception. Most CEOs aren’t that smart.
The crucial thing is that "this" in this case is product management. I'm fine with Jobs being the Caesar Augustus of product; what bothers me is when he starts being touted as the Christ of Business.
