He rolled up his sleeves, and he still does that every day. He dove in, started working on a bunch of things. “He is the same guy who joined Amazon straight out of Harvard Business School. “I didn’t have the fortune of knowing him back when he started with Amazon back in 1997, but I have a feeling that he hasn’t changed much since,” Yeum continued. He’s always thinking about how we can get better.” “He spends so much time trying to think about what can we optimize around speed, around customer obsession, around operational excellence, around security. “His craft is managing this company and making sure that we do all the right things for the customers,” Yeum said. Jassy always is trying to optimize and “master his craft,” according to Yeum. Obviously, there are a lot of important people who’ve contributed to this success, but as a CEO of this company and as…the founder of this AWS business, he’s played an important role.” “ He’s built an amazing business with this team.

“When I watched Andy, one of the things that continued to amaze me about him is that he is still so humble and so hungry to do more than what he’s doing right now,” Yeum told CRN news editor Steve Burke during The Channel Company’s Best of Breed Virtual Event Series on Wednesday. Today, AWS is on track for a more than $46 billion annual revenue run rate, on 29 percent year-over-year growth, as the world’s largest cloud provider by far. Jassy – often regarded as the father of cloud computing - earned his own MBA from Harvard University before joining Amazon in 1997 and launching AWS some nine years later. Yeum became head of AWS’ worldwide channels and alliances in July 2019 after serving in that “shadow” role with Jassy following his tenure as AWS’ general manager in Korea. “There’s so much that I learned from Andy, I don’t know where to start,” said Yeum, who never earned a master of business administration degree from a university. Amazon Web Services channel chief Doug Yeum looks at his nearly two years as CEO Andy Jassy’s chief of staff/technical advisor as his MBA program of sorts.
