Publisher's Summary

In Jeff Bezos' own words, the core principles and philosophy that have guided him in creating, building, and leading Amazon and Blue Origin. 

In this collection of Jeff Bezos' writings - his unique and strikingly original annual shareholder letters, plus numerous speeches and interviews that provide insight into his background, his work, and the evolution of his ideas - you'll gain an insider's view of the why and how of his success. Spanning a range of topics across business and public policy, from innovation and customer obsession to climate change and outer space, this book provides a rare glimpse into how Bezos thinks about the world and where the future might take us. 

Written in a direct, down-to-earth style, Invent and Wander offers listeners a master class in business values, strategy, and execution. 

Each insight offers new ways of thinking through today's challenges - and more importantly, tomorrow's - and the never-ending urgency of striving ahead, never resting on one's laurels. Everyone from CEOs of the Fortune 100 to entrepreneurs just setting up shop to the millions who use Amazon's products and services in their homes or businesses will come to understand the principles that have driven the success of one of the most important innovators of our time.

not what I was looking for

I was looking for a biography on Jeff b, and thought the title read that this book was by Jeff, but it's just a compilation of his public talks. you might like, but not what I was hoping

bit repetitive

great insights but could be considerably shorter with duplicate content removed. felt like an Amazon sales pitch more than the wanderings of Jeff

Questionable

This is more a collection of writings than insight in Jeff. The narrator drones on too which war challenging when all the letters are read out. I'm going to try another audio book about Jeff.
