Meet Apple's New Boss, The Most Powerful Gay Man in Silicon Valley
It looks increasingly like Steve Jobs' reign at Apple is over. If the
CEO doesn't return from his third, indefinite medical leave, COO Tim
Cook will succeed him, marking a new era not only for Apple but for gay
progress.
Cook, who is running Apple in Jobs' absence, has been as reticent to
acknowledge his sexual orientation as he has his prowess in overseeing
the company supply chain. But as Jobs fades back, and as his absences
grow more prolonged and uncertain, Cook will become, by necessity, a
public figure. Apple is no longer a 1980's-style computer company,
segregated from broader society. Apple is one of the most powerful
players in industries like publishing, music, movies, internet services,
advertising, mobile communications and, of course, computer hardware and
software. And the company and its leader have become cultural icons.
Cook, a famously quiet and collected person, will find his backstory,
both personal and professional, the topic of increasing interest and
discussion in the tech community. That new attention is a good thing for
a man with a reputation as fearsomely good as Cook's. Cook's rise to his
position—he is one of the most powerful corporate executives in the
world, to say nothing of being the most powerful gay person in tech by a
mile—is also a tribute to his skill and work ethic on the one hand, and
to the utterly unconventional and unconventionally empowering people
skills of Jobs on the other.
Romantic interests: After Cook was profiled as a "lifelong bachelor" and
"intensely private" elsewhere, we wondered if he might be gay. We've
since heard from two well-placed sources that this is indeed the case,
and it sounds like Cook's sexual orientation has been the topic of at
least some discussion within the company. One tech executive who has
spoken to multiple Apple management veterans about Cook was told
executives there would support Cook if he publicly acknowledged his
orientation, and even would encourage him to do so as he steps up his
leadership role, but that they also had concerns about whether his
coming out would impact the perception of the Apple brand.
Cook would be, by far, the most powerful openly gay executive in tech,
trailed by Microsoft's openly lesbian HR chief Lisa Brummel and by Megan
Smith, the former PlanetOut CEO now working as Google's vice president
of new business development.
Relationships: If Cook is in a long term partnership, he's kept it well
hidden. Given his brutal work schedule, though, it's hard to imagine how
he'd find time. Still, he's got enough experience to have developed some
preferences; our tech executive source claims Cook is into Asian guys, a
tidbit that prompted another tech observer, with whom we shared the
item, to propose some strategic matchmaking that would pair Cook with
Google hotshot Ben Ling. It's an inspired match: Perhaps the coupling
could build a bridge between two corporate nemeses.
