“To ‘innovate,’” writes Devin Leary-Hanebrink, “is to ‘introduce or make new.’ Steve Jobs rarely accomplished this feat. While not necessarily an innovator, Jobs personifies something far more powerful in a free society — the entrepreneur. An ‘entrepreneur’ is one who ‘organizes an enterprise through risk and initiative.’ He accomplished this feat in spades. Jobs enjoyed a gift few possess: the ability to transform a fledgling idea into a masterpiece. He rarely created from scratch, but he could recognize what we ‘needed’ long before we even wanted it.”
