It is strange how the main people running th sr companies are completely unknown and unrecognized. I don’t know if it is coincidental or by design. For most other big tech companies there is usually a lot of guessing by the media of who’s next to lead.

everyone knows who Bezos is; probably 95 out of 100 people would not be able to name the current CEO of Amazon.

another example: everyone knows the Walmart family; I'd guess 99 out of 100 people would not be able to name the Walmart CEO.

I can confirm this; I mentioned him by name to three executives and half dozen middle managers / ICs in a meeting about AWS and nobody had a clue.

good book regarding this topic, it's an essay explaining exactly this: "Good to Great". Quite old but most of the concepts there are still valid nowdays
