Amazon’s letter to shareholders: learnings around moving fast, product and business
Amazon’s letter to shareholders: learnings around moving fast, product and business💡JC's Newsletter #120Dear friends,In JC’s Newsletter, I share the articles, documentaries, and books that I enjoyed the most in the last week, with some comments on how we relate to them at Alan. I do not endorse all the articles I share, they are up for debate. I’m doing it because a) I love reading, it is the way that I get most of my ideas, b) I’m already sharing those ideas with my team, and c) I would love to get your perspective on those. If you are not subscribed yet, it's right here! If you like it, please share about it on social networks! 💡Must-read👉 2021 Letter to Shareholders (Amazon)
➡️ This should drive us too!
➡️ It takes time and iterations to make big ideas work.
➡️ Make trade-offs! They should be hard.
➡️ How can we increase speed and order of magnitude more? Make faster decisions? Ping less people? More tools?
➡️ I hear often from Alaners that it is tough to be challenged. It is very human and normal that it happens. I’d like us to all build a muscle to welcome this challenge, and still digest it and move forward!
➡️ I love this notion of MLP (already in our leadership principles).
➡️ Investing in the long term to have the time to iterate makes a difference. 🏯 Building a company👉 The Feedback Founders Need to Hear – How to Grow Yourself to Grow the Company (First Round Review)
➡️ I should do it more! 👉 Brain Food: What You Put In (FarnamStreetNewsletter)
👉 Sequoia Productive Capital (Stratechery)

➡️ Very interesting how they made the decision.
➡️ What would it mean for us? What could be similar ideas?
➡️ What would be “Health with Alan”?
➡️ It should be the same for us: setting the standards of the market.
➡️ Where is our true moat? 👉 Adam Grenier: @netflix DON’T TAKE A GENERIC ADS APPROACH!!!! (PingThread)
🏥 Healthcare👉 OpenAI engineer saying health ML is 2 year away (twitter) 👉 Broken business models (Healthcare Insights)
➡️ Interesting to check those stats.
➡️ What would be the value to give real time pricing of medication to our members?
➡️ Inspiration for the medical advisory board? It’s already over! Please share JC’s Newsletter with your friends, and subscribe👇 Let’s talk about this together on LinkedIn or on Twitter. Have a good week! If you liked this post from 💡JC's Newsletter, why not share it? |
