In 2005 Steve Jobs gave his first and only 'commencement address' — a lecture given to a graduating class of 23,000 students at Stanford University in the US. This lecture resulted in 26 million views once it hit the web. An opportunity for Jobs to pause and reflect, the lecture allowed Jobs to provide a personal and professional summation of his remarkable life. Steve Jobs' Life By Design is based on this lecture, as George Beahm connects the dots and provides the examples, context and perspective from Jobs' life to expand on each lesson Jobs shared.
