Author of Think Like Amazon: 50 ½ Ideas To Become a Digital Leader
Interview starts at 2:38 and ends at 35:46
“I don’t think that part of the story of Amazon and Bezos gets told enough, about how he bet on himself and on the idea of Amazon. They stuck with it when everybody was a naysayer. They stuck with it for a long period of time when the stock was flat and there was no wealth being created. I think it’s really the all-American dream, how Amazon has progressed. I don’t think that story gets told enough. ”
