Steve Anderson, The Bezos Letters: 14 Principles to Grow Your Business Like Amazon
– The Sharkpreneur podcast with Seth Greene Episode 442 Steve Anderson
Steve Anderson is the author of the bestselling book, The Bezos Letters, where he deconstructs Jeff Bezos' 21 letters to Amazon shareowners through his unique lens of risk.
He believes what has fueled Amazon’s growth comes down to Jeff Bezos’ unique approach to taking and leveraging risk and his commitment to creating a culture for experimentation and invention, in other words, his mindset. It’s all based on his views on success and, actually, failure.
Steve uses the same risk and growth mindset that Bezos and others have used. He believes we can all impact the world (wherever we are) and make our mark for the better. That’s what a risk and growth mindset is all about. That’s why helping businesses understand and embrace a risk and growth mindset is Steve’s passion and his mission.
Listen to this informative Sharkpreneur episode with Steve Anderson about embracing risk and taking more risks to be successful.
Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week’s show:
● Why you have to take risks to grow your business successfully.
● How any business is always going through four cycles all of the time.
● Why you should encourage successful failure, and what that means.
● How you need to grow the size of your failures as your company grows.
● Why employees aren’t afraid of failure but the consequences of failure.
