To prepare to read this, I’m re-reading Sam Walton’s autobiography and Brad Stone’s “The Everything Store” and “Amazon Unbound.” Yes, I’m a nerd. https://t.co/mtZ7BCTtxJ

I finished reading Leonard Lauder's autobiography, "The Company I Keep." It's full of insights into brand, distribution and competitive strategy. He also talks about leadership principles. I highly recommend reading it. Thanks @AndyBailen for the recommendation!
