Whereas Jobs was mercurial, Cook is apparently genteel. Whereas Jobs downplayed labor issues in China, Cook has personally visited factory floors and met with Chinese officials."</em></p><p><img height="399" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1337912042.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" width="600" /></p><p>The <a href="http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2012/05/24/apple-tim-cook-ceo/" target="_blank">Fortune story</a> is pretty interesting if you enjoy reading about how Apple works, and who doesn't right? The difference between Cook and Jobs? I think this quote from an employee says it all:&nbsp;<em>"Cook clearly is a demanding boss, but he's not scary. He's well-respected, but not worshiped."</em></p>
