Costco's new CEO, Ron Vachris, starts his job on Jan 1. He has worked at Costco for more than four decades, beginning as a forklift driver. I love this story and admire Costco's approach to employee development.

@lexfridman If you have the chance, I recommend talking with the locals in addition to the leaders. You will have a limited view by only talking to leaders who are naturally charismatic and incentivized to shape a certain narrative.

@jakeshieldsajj Many people only witness the distressing events unfolding in Gaza, but it's essential to recognize that Palestinians in the West Bank also endure harsh conditions. It's profoundly saddening to witness this.

@HeroDividend They are actually crushing it because they have been and continue to save people money. They keep margins low because they want to pass that value on to their customer’s. Turns out, doing the right thing, over the long haul gets rewarded.

If something was easy to build it will be easy to be competed away. It’s actually better to go after hard things because most people are looking for the easy things. The key, is for it to be something you are enthusiastic and curious about so you have sustained energy to build

All retail ceos should work in their stores regularly. It shouldn’t be a PR stunt but genuine enthusiasm to stay close to your people. Because in retail, you can’t make good decisions behind a desk without front-line understanding of your customers and employees.

Great marketing can solve for customer trial but not retention. This is why it’s critical to build something that people love. Probably the best way to build something that people love is to build something that you love. Or at least don’t ship it unless you love it.
