How is that working out now? From my vantage point, Apple is standing still.

You are aware of Apple's history since 1997, right? Apple was in a far more dire situation than Sony is right now. Show me a CEO who can turn around Sony in a 5 years timeframe and you have someone getting even in the same ballpark as Jobs in terms of leadership and product vision.
There's a lot to be said about his character, especially how he treated others (although it appears to me that he matured quite a bit after his departure from Apple in the 80ies). But I don't think you can diminish his role at the biggest turnaround in IT history so far.

Is your point that Steve Jobs' is unable to bring together innovative teams, while dead?

No, i guess he is diminishing steve's role in success of apple. He is saying jobs is gone and apple is still standing still without him

Confirmation bias.
Apple did plenty of 'standing still' back when Steve Jobs was around.
