At D8 in 2010, Walt Mossberg asked Steve Jobs whether he wins all inter-company disputes. Jobs replied:
Jobs: Oh no I wish I did. No, you see you can’t. If you want to hire great people and have them stay working for you, you have to let them make a lot of decisions and you have to, you have to be run by ideas, not hierarchy. The best ideas have to win, otherwise good people don’t stay.
