May be Steve Jobs is the guy took inputs from multiple people and made the final call and developed products which made everyone who gave inputs think that the product is because of their idea.

By all accounts that's what happened. And the best part is, Steve also thought everyone else's good ideas were his own.

A system that worked very well in that situation, but one that would be very difficult to replicate.
