Very interesting to understand how Jeff Bezos stated Amazon and the successes and roadblocks he and the company encountered along the journey

Great book. Really informative.

good audiobook, light on details

I've never listened to this narrator before, but he has a pleasant voice and did a fine job.

I recommend that those fascinated by Jeff Bezos and Amazon check this out. It's a quick, easy listen that will, more than likely, provide a deeper understanding of how Jeff Bezos succeeded and how Amazon work.

informative & sumaarised

almost everything in my house is bought from Amazon, or at least 70% of it.

this seems to me to be a well-researched book or at least in my honest opinion, a quick summary of Bezos lessons we can take away from him over his rise of success through this e-commerce business in Amazon.

i agree with the writer that we cannot expect businessmen to take care of their employees paternalistically, just because they believe it to be morally right so that is why we have governments and unions, which will force good behavior on the powerful.

Definitely worth a read, especially if you're addicted to this company like me.

Genius - In total obsession

Great look at the real story of what it actually takes to run a successful business and how to be as successful as Jeff Bezos

if you run your own company or plan on starting one or work for a fast-growing company, you will enjoy this as much as I did!

3 words to end off - " In total obsession "

Story of success

This book offers insight about the way a human being thinks and works to achieve a business and service and customer care are of top importance to success! I accept that observation and think keeping that focus is very important! I like Amazon Prime very easy to use! I also like great courses of Amazon video! Three cheers for education and things that are not degenerate!

Rare gift and insight of Bezos success

A snap accounts of a fascinating man with copious amounts of drive, vision and exceptional achievements.

fascinating great read. Was super helpful in getting a better understanding in the rationale behind the Amazon headmen and his learning lessons which we can closely relate or adapt to especially in life and business.

It is a physically short Audiobook but the contents have been extraordinarily helpful.

Because of this purchase, it has allowed me to think back on my career thus far and see how I have personally and sub-consciously had used these principles in my own life.

Bezos is indeed changing the world and totally agree with the author that he's making this e commerce business from yesterday for tomorrow and had evolved to a mammoth.

it's a rare gift of knowledge that we all need for leaders irregardless whether you're young or seasoned leaders or professional. no regret in buying

outstanding summary

From this success story, the author was able to share Jeff Bezos biography, an American entrepreneur and e-commerce pioneer, the creator of online store Amazon.com. He is one of the most successful technology tycoons and investors in the world currently.

By listening this book you can gain knowledge that will allow you to apply lessons learned to your own business and life.

Any additional comments?

great summarized lessons we can learn from Bezos. outstanding job by Jamie and David

great learning lessons

"A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well."Simply love this simple yet bold statement especially when I'm the founder of a start up with 100 employees under my payroll.

Honestly i wasn't sure this will be my first book from Amazon but i'm sold! even bought this Audio book to go along.

regrettably this could be a short read but it's well worth every penny of mine but I stayed up on my Saturday night away from work for reading this one and it was totally worth it.

The book chronicles the events leading to the formation of Amazon.com, it's efforts to become an everything store and its eventual success into becoming a great e-commerce company. Like any great story, Bezos has had lots of ups and downs hence lots of life and business lessons that can be learned from this book itself.

If you're an Amazon customer, you should definitely take the time to read this or listen to the Audio book.
