計(jì)算機(jī)行業(yè)的再?zèng)]有人能像喬布斯那樣做秀了。他的產(chǎn)品發(fā)布會(huì)就像是表演大師的演出。他曾經(jīng)解釋道,電腦所做的無非是處理數(shù)據(jù),但是處理得足夠快就會(huì)讓“結(jié)果看起來像魔法一樣”。他用畢生的時(shí)間將這樣的魔法包裝融入到設(shè)計(jì)優(yōu)雅、使用簡單的產(chǎn)品之中。他所做的比這個(gè)星球上其他任何人都多,決定了我們看什么電影,如何聽音樂以及工作和娛樂的方式。A-Trans-2早在20世紀(jì)70年代,喬布斯等人率先看到向普通人銷售計(jì)算機(jī)的潛在可能性。在那個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)還是黑屏綠字的顯示器、軟盤依然很軟的時(shí)代,計(jì)算機(jī)也許很快普及的想法聽上去像是異想天開。但是喬布斯是為數(shù)不多的能預(yù)見行業(yè)未來的先行者。關(guān)鍵是,他能站在用戶的角度考量計(jì)算機(jī)的外在,而不只是以工程師的角度評價(jià)計(jì)算機(jī)的內(nèi)在,這是他的過人之處。喬布斯將此歸因于自己不羈的青年時(shí)代。ReadingAA-Trans-3
喬布斯在硅谷長大并瘋狂迷上計(jì)算機(jī)。上世紀(jì)60年代末,年少的喬布斯進(jìn)入惠普公司打暑期工。在經(jīng)歷大學(xué)輟學(xué)、印度旅行以及成為佛教徒種種事情之后,喬布斯回到加州,在1976年4月1日愚人節(jié)那天在父母的車庫里與人合伙創(chuàng)辦了蘋果公司。ReadingAA-Trans-4
放棄大學(xué)課程轉(zhuǎn)而學(xué)習(xí)書法讓喬布斯對印刷排版產(chǎn)生了看似無用的熱情。但是后來事實(shí)證明支持不同字體是麥金塔電腦的主要特征。由于麥金塔電腦具有視窗、圖標(biāo)和菜單功能,其銷售口號(hào)是“為非專業(yè)人士服務(wù)的電腦”。喬布斯從蘋果的首次成功大獲其利后,期待他的新機(jī)器有天文數(shù)字的銷量。但是麥金塔電腦并未在大眾市場上獲得成功,喬布斯本人也被蘋果董事會(huì)掃地出門。ReadingAA-Trans-5
然而這個(gè)貌似災(zāi)難的事件最后卻轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)橐患沂?。他與別人合作新開了專門制作電腦圖形圖像的皮克斯公司,以及另一家制造電腦的NeXT公司。1996年,喬布斯重返蘋果,將NeXT的技術(shù)運(yùn)用到一系列蘋果新產(chǎn)品的核心領(lǐng)域。蘋果公司推出了iMac、iPod、iPhone和iPad,成為全世界市值最高的上市公司。當(dāng)喬布斯因健康問題不得不離開蘋果公司掌門人的位置時(shí),他被譽(yù)為歷史上最偉大的首席執(zhí)行官。ReadingAA-Trans-6喬布斯是一個(gè)超越其時(shí)代的人。計(jì)算機(jī)的早期發(fā)展是由技術(shù)精英所主導(dǎo)的。但他對設(shè)計(jì)和操作簡易的重視使他獨(dú)占優(yōu)勢。當(dāng)今世界,電腦已經(jīng)成為時(shí)尚產(chǎn)品,無所不能,典雅、簡潔以及對其他領(lǐng)域的理解就顯得尤為重要。喬布斯iPad2的發(fā)布會(huì)上的演講中說道:“只有技術(shù)是不夠的。唯有當(dāng)技術(shù)與人文科學(xué)相結(jié)合,與人性相結(jié)合時(shí),它才會(huì)產(chǎn)生讓我們的心靈歌唱的產(chǎn)品?!?/p>

視頻會(huì)議
吉姆.斯瑪特,埃森哲公司的主管,當(dāng)她第一次踏進(jìn)位于芝加哥的新視頻會(huì)議辦公室,與遠(yuǎn)在倫敦的同事一起開會(huì)時(shí),心存疑慮。斯瑪特女士回憶道,這種被稱為遠(yuǎn)程呈現(xiàn)的視頻會(huì)議技術(shù)給人如此真實(shí)的感覺,以至于“過了10分鐘,你就忘了你跟他們不在同一個(gè)房間”。B-Trans-2ReadingB埃森哲這家技術(shù)咨詢公司已經(jīng)在全球安裝了13間視頻會(huì)議室并計(jì)劃在年底前再投入使用22間。埃森哲估算,使用虛擬會(huì)議,它的顧問們僅在五月就省去了240趟國際旅行和120趟國內(nèi)飛行,一年可節(jié)約上百萬美元,并免除了員工們無數(shù)個(gè)小時(shí)的飛行之苦。B-Trans-3ReadingB隨著旅行費(fèi)用提高,航空公司縮減服務(wù),大小公司都在重新考慮現(xiàn)場會(huì)議以及員工出差的問題。與此同時(shí),技術(shù)的發(fā)展到經(jīng)濟(jì)實(shí)用的階段,采用移動(dòng)數(shù)字技術(shù)比人員奔波更有成。分析家說,當(dāng)前日益顯現(xiàn)的趨勢遠(yuǎn)不止是如何應(yīng)對日漸增長的旅行費(fèi)用和節(jié)節(jié)衰退的經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢。這些技術(shù)手段將從根本上改變企業(yè)對出差和工作的觀念。B-Trans-4ReadingB
最經(jīng)常旅行的一般是管理顧問、投資銀行家、會(huì)計(jì)、律師和技術(shù)服務(wù)顧問這些人。他們的很多工作都要和客戶面對面地進(jìn)行。但是他們在公司內(nèi)部也開始更多地使用在線協(xié)作工具。
許多公司使用在線方式的另外一個(gè)領(lǐng)域是企業(yè)培訓(xùn)和教育,部分出于減少旅行成本的考慮。一位客服培訓(xùn)經(jīng)理估計(jì),早前6個(gè)月內(nèi)她接觸220人,成本為每人300美?,F(xiàn)在每6個(gè)月就能接觸2500人,成本為每人75美分,而現(xiàn)在所有的培訓(xùn)都是在線完成的。B-Trans-5ReadingB
既然遠(yuǎn)程呈現(xiàn)的一切努力都是為了模仿人們最豐富的互動(dòng)方式:彼此面對面地交談,這種方式自然還有其矛盾之處。
這當(dāng)然不是一個(gè)完美的替代品。埃森哲公司的人力資主管斯瑪特女士一個(gè)月仍然要出差10天左右?!澳阍谶h(yuǎn)程呈現(xiàn)中不能了解其他文化?!彼f,“你到達(dá)那里,收獲良多。你可以通過早餐、晚餐這些場合面對面地建立起人際關(guān)系?!盉-lifelikeReadingB-LanguagePoints
