Amazon CEO Andy Jassy emphasizes that a positive attitude is crucial for career success, especially in your 20s.
In an interview with LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky, Jassy shared that success hinges more on attitude than intelligence. He advises focusing on working hard, being proactive, honoring commitments, and collaborating well with others.
Jassy’s positive mindset helped him thrive at Amazon, including when he took on a unique advisory role to Jeff Bezos. Despite Amazon's criticized workplace culture, Jassy believes maintaining a positive attitude fosters better relationships, mentorships, and overall career growth. He stresses, “You can control your attitude.”
