What I Learned About John Sculley

I learned that John Sculley was recruited to be apart of Apple by Steve Jobs. John used to be the vice-president at PepsiCo, but decided that wouldn't get him very far for the rest of his life. He helped Apple succeed, by taking part in launching 'Macintosh, 'Desktop Publishing' and 'Powerbook'. Steve Jobs, and John Sculley began to argue about the drop in Macintosh sales. Sculley dismissed Steve from his positions as the vice-president and the leader of the Macintosh division.
