- The Secret Life of Steve Jobs, a satire about Silicon Valley which was published in 2007 to critical acclaim. In this tedious parody of the life of Apple founder Steve Jobs, the pseudonymous Fake Steve Jobs offers a gleeful sendup of the real Steve Jobs set amid the recent stock options backdating scandal. Throughout, the fake Steve pontificates on everything from his superior management skills (only promote stupid people) to his role in the development of the iPhone (it involves a lot of non-thinking meditation), and is portrayed as a cold, callow narcissist.
Welcome to the mindto the world of Fake Steve Jobs. Fake Steve the counterintuitive management guru: Obviously we can’t literally put our employees’ lives at risk. But we have to make them feel that way.
” Fake Steve the celebrity hobnobber: I like Bono. He’s the only person I know who’s more self-absorbed than I am.” Options is the book that had the critics howlingwith laughter: A voice for our own digital age....Mac-slappingly funny.
