"A clear, convincing narrator, Carmine Gallo reads with vigor and confidence...as a storyteller, he provides a compelling listening experience." - AudioFile on Carmine Gallo's The Storyteller's Secret

This program is read by the author.

The communication and leadership secrets of Jeff Bezos and how to master them, from the bestselling author of Talk Like Ted.

Jeff Bezos is a dreamer who turned a bold idea into the world’s most influential company, a brand that likely touches your life every day. As a student of leadership and communication, he learned to elevate the way Amazonians write, collaborate, innovate, pitch, and present. He created a scalable model that grew from a small team in a Seattle garage to one of the world’s largest employers.

The Bezos Blueprint by Carmine Gallo reveals the communication strategies that Jeff Bezos pioneered to fuel Amazon’s astonishing growth. As one of the most innovative and visionary entrepreneurs of our time, Bezos reimagined the way leaders write, speak, and motivate teams and customers.

The communication tools Bezos created are so effective that former Amazonians who worked directly with Bezos adopted them as blueprints to start their own companies. Now, these tools are available to you.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Reading through this ARC was a joy. If you have read any of Carmine Gallo's other books, and you like them, then you will probably like this book too.

Goodreads review by Cek994

Mostly banal. The author seems to have two goals: hawk the services of his consulting firm, and name drop all of the famous people he’s interviewed. The book boils down to a few obvious principles that are easy to emphasize but hard to put into practice. First, simplify every piece of written communi......more


Quotes

“Jeff Bezos’ first letter to Amazon shareholders should be required reading for every entrepreneur. I keep the letter in a folder on my desk and re-read it at least once a year. In The Bezos Blueprint, Carmine Gallo examines more than two decades of Bezos letters to reveal the writing and communication strategies that should be taught to everyone with a story to tell.”
—Marc Randolph, Co-Founder and First CEO of Netflix.
