Email de Steve Jobs

El anuncio de Steve Jobs que estará de baja médica hasta junio ha afectado las acciones de Apple.
Es evidente que Tim Cook, quien lideró a Apple mientras Steve Jobs pasó por un primer tratamiento contra el cáncer en 2004, volverá estar al cargo de la compañía. Es sin duda un golpe duro para esta empresa que desde entonces ha sabido llevar esta situacion con serenidad. Steve Jobs según ha explicado, reconoce que sus problemas de salud “son más complejos de lo que pensaba inicialmente”.

Email original ingles:
Apple CEO Steve Jobs today sent the following email to all Apple employees:

Team,

I am sure all of you saw my letter last week sharing something very personal with the Apple community. Unfortunately, the curiosity over my personal health continues to be a distraction not only for me and my family, but everyone else at Apple as well. In addition, during the past week I have learned that my health-related issues are more complex than I originally thought.

In order to take myself out of the limelight and focus on my health, and to allow everyone at Apple to focus on delivering extraordinary products, I have decided to take a medical leave of absence until the end of June.

I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for Apple’s day to day operations, and I know he and the rest of the executive management team will do a great job. As CEO, I plan to remain involved in major strategic decisions while I am out. Our board of directors fully supports this plan.

I look forward to seeing all of you this summer.

Steve
