    The Man Who Built the Apple Store Never Tried to Sell You Anything

    Most people assume Apple's retail dominance comes from great products. Ron Johnson, the man who actually built the Apple Store alongside Steve Jobs, says that's only half the story. Motley Fool host Jason Moser sits down with Ron Johnson — creator of the Apple Store and author of Shop Different — to explore what Steve Jobs really cared about, why Apple's new CEO John Turnus doesn't need to be in a hurry, and what Ron's very public stumble at JCPenney taught him that two decades of success at Target and Apple never could.
