Apple CEO Steve Jobs Drops in to Rally the Yahoo Troops

According to an undisclosed source, Steve Jobs was the secret guest at Yahoo’s executive huddle last Friday.

Apple’s CEO played motivational speaker for the 300-strong group, essentially letting them know that an Apple-like comeback could still be in the cards for the web portal.

It was kind of the Apple executive to drop in and help rally the Yahoo troops, however there’s definitely something interesting about the choice.

Jobs is an ideal go-to when it comes to the topic of making comebacks, but if anyone should be expected to raise morale, one would think it would be either Jerry Yang or Susan Decker.

Yahoo’s dynamic duo has obviously got it in terms of technological vision and financial acumen but that Steve Jobs needed to guide the company through its current slump?

Maybe that’ll come after the first 100 days.
