Bezos at Code Conference 2016

Well worth the investment of one hour or so to see how this man thinks.

The quote that struck me the most (echoing many sentiments of other greats is the following) about 55m into the video:

"I don't like tight agendas. Wandering is important. Thinking you know where you're going... prevents you from inventing"

He also talks about the brilliant "flywheel" model of Amazon.

No wonder Warren himself admires Bezos so much.
