As the founder and visionary of Amazon, Jeff Bezos must be applauded for the growth of the company. He has been an amazing person who took the risk of leaving a well paying Job and venturing out into the unknown. He stepped out when the whole idea of the internet was new and developing.
He also has an amazing talent to be able to adapt to changing circumstances. The market constantly changes, and the people and their needs constantly change. But Jeff Bezos has the uncanny ability to stick with what he is doing in the midst of changing circumstances.
But Along with change, he is consistent in delivering exactly what the customer wants. From ads to the first page on Amazon, they make the adaptation according to the user. Basically, they set up the Amazon store just for you according to your interests.
It might not actually be called a talent but what sets Jeff Bezos apart from the other CEOs of other companies is customer obsession. He knew even before that he would need to focus on the needs and the likes of the customers in order to have a company that will be loved and respected by people.
He made this happen through Amazon and he was able to get the trust of customers in a short amount of time. This may be his greatest strength but it can be considered his weakness too. He became too focused on the needs of the customers that he failed to realize the needs of his employees.
The employees are also vital for the improvement of the company. With the emergence of similar websites to Amazon with better bosses, who knows what will happen to Amazon in the future?

As the founder of the one of the largest corporations in the world, it can be said that Jeff Bezos’s greatest talent would be starting and being successful with large companies. However, he also had talents in science and technology while he was growing up. Amazon really began in Bezo’s garage in the 1990s.
He really wanted an online bookstore and then ended up pushing out the big book chains that have traditional brick and mortar stores. The only bookstore that truly remains is Barnes and Noble. Being an entrepreneur and conducting business is a talent and skill. There are many people who try to start businesses that should work but fail because they lack the talent in conducting business.
