In the wake of Steve Jobs’ resignation yesterday, the Internet is littered with chatter.
There is of course the adoration of the man and his accomplishments. There are the Wall Street watchers eyeballing the stock as the echo-effect of an honest to God change agent impacts a true brand’s valuation.

Inventor. Marketer. Remember that those two words are not mutually exclusive.
The world is desperate for those with a vision. And more than ever people are seeking someone compelling enough to clearly convey a vision and lead. Not just on “Wall Street.” Not just on “Main Street.” Right there in the office where you sit. Right here in mine. And in our homes.
Are you the next “Master Inventor, Marketer?
