Summary/Abstract: The first reason for writing this paper is to analyse what determines the creativity of an individual, in this case using the example of Stephan Wozniak. Another is to reframe the popular opinion that Apple Incorporated (hereafter: Apple Inc.) owes most to Steve Jobs. For this purpose, selected book publications, interviews with Steve Wozniak and other articles widely available on the Internet were analysed. The biography, relationships and views of the engineer from San Jose were examined. After careful analysis, it can be concluded that external, processual as well as internal factors condition creativity and, moreover, after reading this work, it will certainly be justified to consider S. Wozniak as a major contributor to Apple Inc.
