> I'd say that as a general heuristic, if you want "to increase agility and innovation speed" do the opposite of what Amazon does.
That’s a pretty vague and useless heuristic. Since you worked at AWS, maybe you could answer why AWS moved slowly on releasing features for existing services? An Amazon-y “five whys” analysis would probably yield a lot more specific and useful heuristics.
Don’t take it too literally. My point was that AWS doesn’t show agility and rapid innovation on existing products, so when it tries to tell you how to do that, maybe take it with a grain of salt.
