Amazon Leadership Principles - Dive Deep
Which version of this story best demonstrates strong Dive Deep competency? A) "I was reviewing team metrics and saw a small drop in performance. I escalated the issue to the platform team. They investigated and fixed the problem. Performance improved afterward." B) "We noticed a performance drop together and investigated as a team. We found the root cause and deployed a fix. Customer satisfaction increased." C) "I spotted a 2% drop in a service outside my team during a routine check. I investigated the logs, identified a misconfiguration, and coordinated with the platform team to deploy a fix. The drop was eliminated, improving uptime by 2%." D) "I saw an issue in another team's service and decided to fix it myself. I found the root cause and deployed a patch. Things got better after that."

Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify scope boundary -- only C explicitly states outside own team.
  2. Step 2: Check for individual ownership -- C uses 'I' throughout, others use 'we' or passive.
  3. Step 3: Look for specific metric impact -- C quantifies 2% uptime improvement.
  4. Step 4: Conclude C is strongest by signal framework.
Quick Trick: Scope + I + metric = strongest.
