Tim Cook Reflects on Legacy as He Steps Down After 15 Years at AppleNext

Tim Cook is stepping down after 15 years as Apple's CEO, a role he assumed in 2011 following Steve Jobs' declining health. Cook, who joined Apple in 1998 and became COO in 2005, oversaw significant growth, expanding Apple's business beyond hardware. Despite this, he hopes to be remembered simply as "a good and decent man," emphasizing personal character over financial achievements. His leadership has been marked by operational expertise and steady company expansion.
