Jack Dorsey
CEO and Founder of Square, a mobile-payment company that recently had its IPO, and CEO and co-founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey is another innovator who continually pushes through. His story is similar to Steve Jobs. Dorsey, who set the highly debated 140-character count for Twitter posts, was pushed out as Twitter CEO in 2006 — just as Jobs was from Apple in 1985. Dorsey returned as CEO in July and, while away from Twitter, founded Square. When Jobs was out of Apple, he also co-founded Pixar, the computer-animated film studio.
Will Dorsey’s story turn legacy like Jobs’ story? Only time will tell, but I think it is definitely worth keeping tabs on.
