I find it curious that people dismiss Elon Musk as “not being an engineer “or xyz when it comes the nuts and bolts of the technology behind the successful companies he’s at the helm of.
To be a great leader/entrepreneur doesn’t require you to “do everything” or be able to create the nuts and bolts of a company.
Elon is like Steve Jobs IMO. But instead of being mean, he creates memes.
Just because someone is funny and/or thinks they’re funny, doesn’t make them stupid. They just have a cheerful persona.
Even though Jobs was mean at times, he knew how to get people to perform beyond their abilities and seek perfection.
Just because Musk acts like a child with his sense of humour, doesn’t negate the same ability take and lead a company to success.
Yes, Tesla was in existence before Musk, but it was only a concept car that was another company’s car (Lotus). There wouldn’t have been a Model S, X, 3, Y or Cybertruck without Musk. M
I could go on, but I won’t.
I’ll end on the fact that Musk is smarter than people are willing to give him credit for, and it appears to me, that is because he doesn’t subscribe to their political ideology.
