Talking point: The book is set to be published in November. It is not an Amazon-sponsored project, but has had input from the company’s communications executives. It will highlight Bezos’s often-used phrases (“You can work long, hard, or smart, but at Amazon.com you can’t choose two out of three”) to details of the work culture he created at the company (“We don’t do PowerPoint … presentations at Amazon. Instead, we write narratively structured six-page memos. We silently read one at the beginning of each meeting in a kind of ‘study hall’”). Bezos’s latest communication is a message encouraging all meetings to be cancelled June 19—which, known as Juneteenth, marks the end of slavery in the U.S.—so employees can “reflect, learn and support each other.”
