His talk[0] at sloan school when he was young is also good.

His answer to buiness school students (some of whom were in consulting business) is quite revealing of his personality. Doesn't hesitate to talk straight in a very calm way. And very clear in his mind about the views he expresses. Also, very eloquent in putting his views forward.

I transcribed the words and body language of his classic "Focusing is about saying no" talk at WWDC '97:

“Focusing is about saying no.” -Steve Jobs, WWDC ‘97

As sad as it was, Steve Jobs was right to “put a bullet in OpenDoc’s head”.

Jobs explained (and performed) his side of the story in this fascinating and classic WWDC’97 video: “Focusing is about saying no.”
