There is only a finite amount of energy a person has and a finite amount of hours awake, you know? I can't imagine trying to re-steer Twitter while also being an effective CEO at a place like Square.
Elon has some awesome lieutenants; Shotwell at SpaceX being the best example, who is essentially Tim Cook or Sheryl Sandberg level. That clearly has never existed at Twitter (does/did exist at Square when Keith Rabois was there; not sure about Square now but probably.)
Right but Elon put them there. Part of being a leader is recognizing when you have too much shit to do and finding people you trust, are qualified and delegating tasks to them.
Absolutely. If we were to start cataloguing the ways Jack Dorsey is not Elon Musk we'd be here for a long time.
JB Straubel at Tesla too
Who else thinks Musk has turned into self spreading machine with a broken PID ?
Square and Twitter are both public as opposed to Musk's endeavors, but I still think Musk is a fairly solid example that it might be possible to do.
