Andy Jassy: Who Is Amazons New CEO?

Posted by Valentine Belue on Tuesday, July 23, 2024

Hi all, it’s Matt. Andy Jassy took the keys to Amazon.com Inc. from Jeff Bezos on Monday.

I’ve spent the last couple months talking to Jassy’s coworkers and friends for a profile on the 53-year-old executive. My basic question was this: Does Jassy’s move to the CEO’s chair herald a new era for the $1.8 trillion company? Will we see a gentler, humbler Amazon? Is there a version of the e-commerce behemoth—that Bezos considered naming “Relentless.com”—that slows down, and focuses on placating workers groups and pacifying regulators?
