A Leadership Time Warp—How Elon Musk Has Set Modern Management Back 70 Years

Elon Musk’s SpaceX has Invented Time Travel. Clearly, that’s the case. Why is this massive innovation being kept secret?

I am convinced that Mr. Musk has teamed with Dr. Emmett Brown and traveled back In time on his SpaceX rocket into the Great Depression of 1929. How else can you explain ridding the company of half its employees, and bullying the remaining staff with ultimatums?

Whatever his vision prior to shelling out $44 billion to acquire Twitter, I can’t imagine any of the remaining employees being inspired by his leadership or buying into his vision, knowing the disregard he has for Twitter’s most valuable assets…hint, it’s not the software.

Here’s hoping he can set his Time Machine Back to the Future…prior to November 11, 2005, for a live meet-up with Peter Drucker. I have no doubt that the Father of Modern Business Management could teach him a thing or two about leadership, people, innovation, and inspiring greatness in others.
