Jeff Bezos led Amazon to mammoth success by using a particular set of principles when he needed to make important decisions for the company. The principles were discussed in a new book, "Flywheels: How Cities Are Creating Their Own Futures," by Tom Alberg, a former board member at Amazon.

Alberg – now a managing director of Madrona Venture Group, a Seattle-based venture firm he founded – was an early investor in Amazon.

Back in 2019, Alberg said no one wanted to invest in the company's first funding round because they expected what was then a fledgling online books startup to be "murdered" by Barnes & Noble, Insider's Ashley Stewart reported.

Bezos ultimately convinced Alberg to invest because he had a thorough, focused business plan and strong initial results, Alberg wrote in the book.
