About Yegor Silyutin

I believe that throughout our career at Amazon we find various Leadership Principles resonate the most. At the moment, Earn Trust is something that I strongly advocate for. Building strong culture within the organization is a critical part of the overall business success. It is important to motivate and inspire, being emotionally intelligent. At the end of the day, your ability to effectively listen, clearly communicate and wholeheartedly support people has direct influence on your impact as a leader.
