Jonathan Ive has made the 2013 TIME 100 list of the most influential people in the world.

Here's what Bono had to say about the 46 year old Apple SVP.

-----
Jony Ive is himself classic Apple. Brushed steel, polished glass hardware, complicated software honed to simplicity. His genius is not just his ability to see what others cannot but also how he applies it. To watch him with his workmates in the holy of holies, Apple’s design lab, or on a night out is to observe a very rare esprit de corps. They love their boss, and he loves them. What the competitors don’t seem to understand is you cannot get people this smart to work this hard just for money. Jony is Obi-Wan. His team are Jedi whose nobility depends on the pursuit of greatness over profit, believing the latter will always follow the former, stubbornly passing up near-term good opportunities to pursue great ones in the distance. Jony’s values happen to add value — emotional and financial. It takes a unique alchemy of form and function for millions of people to feel so passionately about the robot in their pocket.

Not only is he the best. He is a master. A leader. Very easily spoken. Never a bad thing to say to or about any one. He's a craftsman. Ever since iMac started we have seen his presence. We hope for many more years of mr Johnny. Thank u.
