Amazon “Our Leadership Principles” ⬢ At AWS COMMUNITY APAC 2022(Thailand), an award was given based on these principals ⬢ The following two winners from Japan: ⬡ Mr. Yamaguchi (Chiba)(DELIVER RESULTS) ⬡ Mr. Matsui (Hamamatsu)(INSIST ON THE HIGHEST STANDARDS) 50 Leadership Principles - About Amazon https://www.amazon.jobs/content/jp/our-workplace/leadership-principles

Amazon “Our Leadership Principles” ⬢ It is often said that I practice the following two things ⬢ Bias for Action ⬡ Speed of decision and action ⬢ Think Big ⬡ Branch Management -> JAWS DAYS (on-site big event) -> JAWS SONIC (24H online) -> JAWS PANKRATION (Global / SIS / 24H online) -> ??? 51

“ Speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk taking. 52 Bias for Action

“ Thinking small is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Leaders create and communicate a bold direction that inspires results. They think differently and look around corners for ways to serve customers. 53 Think Big

7. Social Capital 54 ⬢ For Robert David Putnam, social capital refers to ‘features of social organizations, such as networks, norms and trust that facilitate action and cooperation for mutual benefit’.

Social Capital 55 ⬢ Invisible value (power of connection) ⬢ Repeated accumulation is important for communities and individuals Social Capital Mutual respect Microservice Trustworthy organization Low High Social Capital (some) contribution confidence dignity impact on others community attribution access Norms Trust Network

Social Capital 56 ⬢ Bonding Social Capital ⬢ Bridging Social Capital ⬡ JAWS-UG is not too blocky, not too loosely coupled (↑)Bonding&Bridging(→)

How can JAWS-UG expand range of activities? ⬢ Have a fun! ⬢ Make a difference! ⬢ Go global! ⬢ Find new heroes! 60 With these two things in mind, we held JAWS PANKRATION https://www.slideshare.net/Typhon666_death/ 20211120-jaws-pankration-2021-opening-remarks

“ There are AWS user groups all over the world, and active exchanges are taking place across countries and regions. As one of the worldwide user groups, we are pleased to be able to participate in flat exchanges and contribute to the growth of international user groups. 61 Go global!

My own “Go global!” ⬢ Held JAWS PANKRATION ⬢ Management was selected from each branch and involved ⬢ Bringing shy Japanese speakers to the global event to lower the threshold ⬢ I also wanted to take the stage overseas and CFP ⬢ There were direct impressions from the participants at the stage in Thailand 62 Go Global Planning SIS Fun Suitable Relief

“ We believe that you can grow more by taking on the challenge of speaking once rather than participating in 100 study sessions. Through community activities, we share not only the knowledge and experience that each individual has, but also the opportunity for everyone who contributes to JAWS-UG to become a hero. 63 Find new heroes!

一期一会 Ichigo Ichie (once-in-a-lifetime chance) 5

A once-in-a-lifetime chance with “people” ⬢ “In our age of complete distraction and our culture of instant gratification, when we often fail to listen, and engage only superficially with our surroundings, each person contains a key that can open the door to attention, harmony with others, and love of life.” ⬢ Cherish every moment ⬢ Don't end with “Ichigo Ichie" 69 https://www.amazon.co.jp/Book-Ichigo-I chie-Making-Japanese/dp/0143134493
