A deconstruction of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos' annual review letters to shareholders that show why, when, and how he takes risks and how that makes them successful.
Amazon is the fastest company ever to reach $100 billion in sales and they didnât reach that landmark by staying in their comfort zone. Risk taking is the key that unlocked the door to growth at Amazon, but those risks were (and are) intentional, calculated, and strategic. Thomas Edison believed, âI have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.â and Amazonâs founder, Jeff Bezos, has always linked experimentation and failure with growth and success.
But ârisk takingâ can be costly (even disastrous) if you donât know how to use it to your advantage. Fortunately, Bezos has provided every business owner a "hidden in plain sight" roadmap for how he grew Amazon through his Letter to Shareholders (or as he named them, share owners) that he has written annually for the past 20 years.
For the first time, Technology and Risk expert Steve Anderson has analyzed and distilled these letters to reveal the key 14 Growth Principles that unlock the lessons, mindset, and steps Bezos has used to make Amazon the massive success it is today.
Now, business owners, leaders, CEOs, employees, and managers can apply these same principles to grow their business to be more efficient, productive, and successfulâfast!
