I think the only way Apple could maintain Jobs' strategy of innovation, were he to step down (which ain't gonna happen in the near future), would be to bring in a proven architect to run the place. Frank Ghery perhaps? Or maybe an up and coming young architect. Architects have two advantages over bean counters, they understand and can partake in innovation and they know how to deal with stakeholders far better that the ordinary human. Besides that, they are taught art, design, and engineering, and business principles. Besides most of them use Macs, so they know the machine and why it's successful.
