Geek Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/tim-cook.jpg" alt="Tim Cook, Apple CEO" title="tim-cook" width="200" height="229" class="alignright size-full wp-image-20623" /> Tim Cook reportedly sent out the following email to all Apple employees today, a day after <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/08/24/steve-jobs-resigns-as-ceo-of-apple/">Steve Jobs resigned</a> from the CEO position.</p> <blockquote><p>Team:</p> <p>I am looking forward to the amazing opportunity of serving as CEO of the most innovative company in the world. Joining Apple was the best decision I’ve ever made and it’s been the privilege of a lifetime to work for Apple and Steve for over 13 years. I share Steve’s optimism for Apple’s bright future.</p> <p>Steve has been an incredible leader and mentor to me, as well as to the entire executive team and our amazing employees. We are really looking forward to Steve’s ongoing guidance and inspiration as our Chairman.</p> <p>I want you to be confident that Apple is not going to change. I cherish and celebrate Apple’s unique principles and values. Steve built a company and culture that is unlike any other in the world and we are going to stay true to that—it is in our DNA. We are going to continue to make the best products in the world that delight our customers and make our employees incredibly proud of what they do.</p> <p>I love Apple and I am looking forward to diving into my new role. All of the incredible support from the Board, the executive team and many of you has been inspiring. I am confident our best years lie ahead of us and that together we will continue to make Apple the magical place that it is.</p> <p>Tim</p></blockquote> <p>Great letter that should reassure and rally the troops. The web is littered with commentary and speculation on the topic of Apple today, but out of all the garbage, this was worth posting. </p> <p>The text of the email <a href="http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2011/08/tim-cook-e-mail-to-apple-employees-apple-is-not-going-to-change.ars">is via ArsTechnica</a>.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9FVwK__CHwQMbGMgc0G1YZiOcWI/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9FVwK__CHwQMbGMgc0G1YZiOcWI/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9FVwK__CHwQMbGMgc0G1YZiOcWI/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9FVwK__CHwQMbGMgc0G1YZiOcWI/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=pHyJ7DOr9EU:FzrB-8mroMM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/pHyJ7DOr9EU" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
