How did Amazon get to be such a giant company? For many of us, Amazon has become an important presence in our lives whether it is shopping on their website, reading on your Kindle, listening to your Alexa speaker – Amazon is everywhere. How did it happen? Is Jeff Bezos a genius or was he just at the right place at the right time? One person who understands Amazon better than most is Brad Stone. Brad is senior executive editor for global technology at Bloomberg News and the author of Amazon Unbound: Jeff Bezos and the Invention of a Global Empire (https://amzn.to/3hxau9u). Listen as he gives us a peek behind the curtain at Amazon and explains how Jeff Bezos made the company so successful.
The Covid epidemic has helped to create another epidemic – workplace anxiety. A large percentage of people today are very concerned about their job security and other workplace issues caused by all the uncertainty we have experienced over the last year. That anxiety then spills over into peoples’ personal lives and can even cause health problems. What’s so interesting is that even though many people experience this anxiety, no one talks about. Chester Elton has investigated this. Chester is co-author of the book, Anxiety at Work: 8 Strategies to Help Teams Build Resilience, Handle Uncertainty, and Get Stuff Done (https://amzn.to/3huFbfy). He joins me to discuss this silent epidemic among today’s workforce and what people can do to relieve their anxiety so we can get on with life.
