Omg, the last part of the episode was the best! The first book I read from Isaacson was the one about Steve Jobs, and believe me, it has been inspiring me since then (personally and professionally)! Isaacson has the ability to make anything "understandable" in a very so elegant way, i.e. simple!!! Shane, thank you! Great interview!

I loved the last part of this podcast. I completely agree with your statement.

An excellent interview I started reading books of Walter Isaacson just for the past 6 months and read Leonardo da Vinci, Steve Jobs, Benjamin Franklin… at present reading Innovators… after listening just ordered Code Breaker….. In the above interview I loved the view of Walter Isaacson… intention to inspire… I wholeheartedly say that he already inspired me and my son… 🙏 With warm regards Balaji- Sydney-Australia

Incredible guest. Good to hear from CEOs etc but i think the best knowledge projects are with writers, psychologists and people who can talk about more than their own career.

Well done. Once I worked at the Boston Consulting Group as consultant and learned the lessons of how to do the interview and what we may get - such was the beginning. Then, I followed up for the next 40 some years doing the same. I asked and asked with curiosity and inquisitiveness. Most of the time, things flow, people feel at ease that we can communicate in some way or other. I maintain that at the age 75 and practice it endlessly to find what this life is about what we may learn from whomever I meet. My books and my life may be made with such a principle as well. I happened to find on my own re the Mac casing with many signs of people which was shared in this video. Also, about the story of alignment of parts on PC board, I verified that story at TEC's Ohito factory in Japan where Jobs visited. - In short I feell compassion must be at the base of all of these ideas. (I sense there is a spirit of Zen in such act) I have watched only 18 min. of the video so far - Hope I come back later...when I have time.

I love how Walter's books all carry a theme of the truly great innovators and how they are similar in how they think and are curious. Great interview Shane!

he makes a great point that The creative human spirit can't be reduced to a formula. Steve retained the childhood quality of being lost in the wonder of creation. Like great architecture, it evokes an appreciation on the subconscious level. You can't necessarily describe why you like it, but you do

This is a massively important episode! Thanks Shane!!

Walter, you are absolutely correct to state that "you have to be you", your books are no how to books" and "you have to study a lots of people". Creative people are born?

Wow! Blown away and inspired.

Hey Walt talk about all the Narcissists in Aspen and how little they've changed the World for the better!

Einstein his life and universe and Leonardo Da Vinci are my favourite biographies.

I love your podcast and your guests! Thank you for bringing this to the world!

You are great biography writer.I curious if you can write ordinary woman with extraordinary professional works in her life.

This guy asks good questions.

Hi Shane ..you're amazing ..keep up with this good stuff

Shane - you need to build 2 video courses - one based on "mental models" book as a whiteboard motion graphic and second on "Influence" 2,0 by Robert Cialdini preferably the way you understand them...

As one who was familiar with measuring grains and liquids in square and cylindrical volumetric devices, "Squaring the Circle" must have been as obvious in the world as breathing, you can imagine how easily grains and liquids are poured from one standardised container to another. So advancing the idea of an interchangeable statistical area of incremental measurement to Newtonian Fluxion-Integral Temporal superposition Calculus in the Observable context of e-Pi-i 1-0-infinity Singularity positioning thermodynamical real-time condensation of Bose-Einsteinian 2-ness i-reflection containment, is as "obvious" as the First, Second, Zeroth, Law adaptation of Equivalence Principle to the concept of Logarithmic Time Duration Timing Holographic Principle Imagery projection-drawing Perspective. Sciencing is not even wrong without careful training in Observation via Singularity-point Entanglement positioning "Artistically", ie with respect for Relativity in Actuality.

At around 10:00 min It is really nice to know that Steve Jobs essence came from his dad. Today we average Men, fence painters , been excluded by a fraction of radical feminists who think a child doesnt need a good dad that can pass good values to their own children...

Thanks

Hello, very interesting and inspiring. Is there a possiblity to communicate to Walter Isaacson?

We all are relative relatives ! So ! Stay decent !

Innovators is also a good book

Steve Jobs would observe or create product features that he thought were "really cool". A lot of entrepreneurs try to do that but not many are nearly as successful in evoking that feeling in the customer. like Elon Musk, his was a focused and dedicated vision. You can't create that with a committee

First off, Steve Jobs stole the idea for a graphical user interface and mouse from Xerox. Second off, many successful products were the ideas of the people who worked for Jobs, ideas many of which Jobs was against and had to be talked into implementing. Picking Jobs as an example of an innovator makes me wonder whether Issacson has done his homework.

No-one else including Sony, Microsoft and others could come up with an online music store. Its one thing to have an idea. Its another to put all the deals together, make it easy and also have it a success. I think Jobs was the perfect person to get those deals done.

There are many geniuses People dont know about JRD Tata, Ramanujan, Albert Camus, Ayn Rand, BR Ambedkar, Linus Trovald... People who Invented Touch Screen, CLanguage, Transisters ICS Chips, wireless .... It Idiotic to Give all credit to Steve Jobs

Jobs was a lucky fool.

and let me guess, you're an unlucky genius smh

I hope Walter writes Bill Gates bio, as I'd like to see one day that he writes a bio on non white people. Another Anglophilia fest of only white matters, has become as common as the day is long. Some ethnic diversity would be refreshing.
