The most logical way to break up Amazon might not be Elizabeth Warren's plan, which includes severing Amazon’s Marketplace and Basics line of products from the company and reversing what she calls its anti-competitive acquisitions of Whole Foods and Zappos. Experts think spinning off Amazon Web Services into its own separate $400 billion company could be the better route.

Experts made the case for:

• Amazon could appease the regulatory gods by spinning it off.
• Spinning off AWS could improve its standing with consumers who in turn won't pressure politicians.

And the case against:

• Amazon doesn't have significant motivation right now to do so.
• Evidence is lacking to show it's anti-competitive.
• There's no precedent for Amazon's situation.

Odds are you've already seen the NBC peacock go toe-to-toe with Stranger Things star David Harbour or witnessed its comedic chops with Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman, but that's all you're going to hear about NBC's new Peacock streaming service until sometime in 2020. For competitive reasons, NBCUniversal said during an earnings call that it will not reveal much about the streaming service until the final months leading up to its launch. CEO Steve Burke said Peacock will go a different route than services like Netflix and wants to keep those plans under wraps, unlike Disney and WarnerMedia, which revealed key details with investors.

Early in my career I had the privilege to learn from a strong leader who taught me to think creatively, care and be a strategic leader. What I learned from him has helped guide my career and success throughout the years. To this day, he is still my mentor and friend.

When I was a 30-something working in Asia at Procter & Gamble, the president for the Far East in the mid-'90s, Larry Dare, became my unofficial mentor. We never set ground rules. We never established that he was my mentor or I his mentee. But I think we both knew that a special relationship was unfolding over a period of a few years, countless meetings, some tough strategic and operational conversations and ultimately a ton of mutual respect. He didn't hesitate to share his knowledge or coach me up when my preparation wasn't comprehensive enough. He helped me get promoted more than once, and ultimately gave the final blessing that made me a general manager for the first time. He made me a more complete marketer and businessman.
