Being nice is good and all, but if you want to challenge the status quo in a significant way, you need to ruffle some feathers.
That makes me wonder whether being fired changed his character so that he started making more conscious use of his "Yang" side. Before being fired, it seems he would just argue with directors and be at war with everybody in the company in a very immature way. Afterwards, it seems he was more harsh in the sense of demanding results and such. Given Apple was successful after his return, that probably reinforced his behavior.
