At the beginning of the covid-19 pandemic DHO1 management approached me to make a floor grid that would assist Amazonians with social distancing. I made two sets of floor grids, the navy blue/ yellow set was chosen to print and install at DHO1. I had free reign to create so I choose to use the Amazon Leadership Principles as a theme for their new floor grid. If you’re not familiar with Amazon’s Leadership Principles, they are as follows:
- Customer Obsession
- Ownership
- Invent and Simplify
- Are Right, A Lot
- Learn and Be Curious
- Hire and Develop the Best
- Insist on the Highest Standards
- Think Big
- Bias for Action
- Frugality
- Earn Trust
- Dive Deep
- Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit
- Deliver Results
Since the beginning of the pandemic Amazon has added two new principles:
- Strive to be Earth’s Best Employer
- Success and Scale Bring Broad Responsibility
These principles are not included in the SD floor grid.
