Dear,
I have attached my CEO Analysis as you requested for Business Rhetoric class. The document provides a biography of Jeffrey Bezos CEO of Amazon, along with an analysis of his visionary leadership style. My initial interest in Bezos stemmed from a personal interest in ecommerce business and start-up business leadership.
After much research I have concluded that Jeffrey Bezos’ visionary leadership style consists of three main characteristics. First, is his focus on long-term goal setting and focusing on the horizon, not what is at hands reach. Second, is his relentless pursuit of innovation. Lastly, is the characteristic of being the motivator of a team. All three of these characteristics implemented at the same time have allowed Amazon to take over an entire market as well as constantly being one step ahead of their competition.
As a student and competitor, I would appreciate as much candid feedback in the areas in which you believe I need to channel my efforts and focus on improving my business rhetoric. As I know such honestly crucial to my development in realizing my aspirations as a business professional.
Sincerely,
“Enclosure”
