• 232 Podcast Episode 49 - Working Backwards by Colin Bryar and Bill Carr

  We took another dive into the large pile of books…and came up with Working Backwards by Colin Bryar and Bill Carr Business books; are they all they are hyped up to be? Meet the “insights, stories and secrets” of Amazon presented by a couple of senior ex-employees. We dive into the formulaic nature of business books and how the Amazon story has a lot more Jeff and a lot more luck than perhaps this book really acknowledges. We also reflect on whether the book really represents the Amazon of today, which is perhaps a different story.
