Lessons From Working At Amazon – Daniel Gray

This is Part 2 of my interview with Daniel Gray.

If you missed Part 1, it was one of my favorite interviews because it made an impact on me personally and I often think about the concepts and how they apply to my own life. Dan’s had a ton of success as a sales executive, including time at Amazon Web Services. We talk a lot about the lessons he learned while at Amazon and other stops in his career.

Some Highlights from this Episode:

• The power of customer obsession
• His journey to find EQ as a leader
• What it means to lead out and in front
• The value of defining output goals and input activities
• What Amazon uses instead of PowerPoint
• The importance of being data-driven
