Tim Cook, who replaced Steve Jobs as the chief executive of Apple has told the staff that 'company will not change'.
In an email to Apple's staff, cook said he is confident that the future of the company was 'safe' and the 'best years' were yet to come.
The email was sent a day after Steve Jobs stepped down as the CEO. Jobs resigned after telling the board that his health problems meant that he 'could no longer meet my duties and expectations as CEO', The Telegraph reports.
Below is the full text of the email:
Team,
I am looking forward to the amazing opportunity of serving as CEO of the most innovative company in the world. Joining Apple was the best decision I've ever made and it's been the privilege of a lifetime to work for Apple and Steve for over 13 years. I share Steve's optimism for Apple's bright future.
Steve has been an incredible leader and mentor to me, as well as to the entire executive team and our amazing employees. We are really looking forward to Steve's ongoing guidance and inspiration as our Chairman.
I want you to be confident that Apple is not going to change. I cherish and celebrate Apple's unique principles and values. Steve built a company and culture that is unlike any other in the world and we are going to stay true to that -- it is in our DNA. We are going to continue to make the best products in the world that delight our customers and make our employees incredibly proud of what they do.
I love Apple and I am looking forward to diving into my new role. All of the incredible support from the Board, the executive team and many of you has been inspiring. I am confident our best years lie ahead of us and that together we will continue to make Apple the magical place that it is.
Tim
