  • He strengthened Apple’s supply chain, manufacturing network and internal operations, helping the company handle its growing global business.
  • Cook gave product leaders more freedom while bringing in outside talent for areas such as AI, retail and new devices.
  • Under Cook, Apple’s market value grew from about $350 billion in 2011 to more than $4 trillion, despite criticism that he lacked Jobs’ product vision.
