Tony Hsieh, the “visionary” developer of online shoe retailer Zappos has died at the age of 46. Hsieh was an internet pioneer and venture capitalist, he and Harvard classmate Alfred Lin transformed a small business selling shoes online into a $1.2bn company by the time of its acquisition by Amazon in 2009. The famously generous tech exec was a lifelong believer in cultivating communities where he instilled the importance of shared values and how to make crazy ideas a reality. His motto was to align your company around your people and above all - always be yourself.
