Jobs' ousting from Apple in the 1980s was a pivotal moment in his career from "summary" of STEVE JOBS by WALTER. ISAACSON

Jobs' departure from Apple in the 1980s marked a turning point in his career that would shape his future endeavors. The company he co-founded had grown rapidly, but internal power struggles and clashes with the board ultimately led to his ousting. It was a bitter pill for Jobs to swallow, as Apple was not just a business to him, but a reflection of his own identity and vision. Being forced out of Apple was a humbling experience for Jobs, who had always been seen as a visionary and a leader in the tech industry. Suddenly finding himself without a clear sense of direction, he embarked on a period of self-discovery and reinvention. He started a new company, NeXT, and acquired another one, Pixar, which would later become a major player in the animation industry. During this time of exile from Apple, Jobs honed his skills as a manager and a leader, learning from his past mistakes and developing a new approach to business. He became more focused and disciplined, with a renewed sense of purpose and determination. This period of introspection and growth would prove to be invaluable in his eventual return to Apple. Jobs' time away from Apple allowed him to see the company from a different perspective, giving him insights into its strengths and weaknesses. When he was eventually brought back to lead the struggling company, he did so with a fresh outlook and a clear vision for its future. The lessons he learned during his exile would shape the way he approached challenges and opportunities, making him a more effective and successful leader.

The experience was a pivotal moment in his career, setting the stage for his triumphant return to Apple and his subsequent success in revolutionizing the tech industry.
