  • 14. NW: You’ve talked about Kindle being this example of working backward from the customer. Can you explain that? JB: There are two ways that companies can extend what they’re doing. One is they can take an inventory of their skills and competencies, and then they can say, “OK, with this set of skills and competencies, what else can we do?” And that’s a very useful technique that all companies should use. But there’s a second method, which takes longer-term orientation. It is to say, rather than ask what are we good at and what else can we do with that skill, you ask, who are our customers? What do they need? And then you say we’re going to give that to themfrom Newsweek, Dec 28, 2009 - Jan 4, 2010 regardless of whether we currently have the skillsJeff Bezos, founded Amazon in 1994 to do so, and we will learn those skills no matter how long it takes.
