Jeff Bezos Advises Adam Neumann on Meeting Strategy, Influencing Leadership at Flow

Amazon's founder suggests Neumann speak last in meetings to foster original ideas, marking a shift from his previous leadership at WeWork.

Bezos' advice to Neumann emphasizes the importance of hearing all opinions in a meeting, reversing traditional seniority speaking order.
Neumann, known for his unconventional approach at WeWork, is implementing Bezos' advice in his new venture, Flow.
The advice was given after Bezos observed Neumann at a tech summit, aiming to enhance decision-making processes.
Flow, backed by prominent investors like Andreessen Horowitz, could see a significant shift in its meeting culture and leadership dynamics.
Bezos' meeting strategy, which includes detailed pre-meeting memos and structured discussions, contrasts with Neumann's past spontaneous style.
