#14 The Elon Musk Change Method™
Show Notes

The armchair quarterbacks are out in full force pretending they can do a better job of 'managing twitter' than good ol' Elon. Reactions to what he's done at twitter range from "this is a clinic in mis-management" to "Elon doesn't know good change management!!"

Many people have asked me what I think about Elon's "approach to change". I don't like commenting on stuff like this because Elon evokes such a broad spectrum of reactions, but what the heck, here goes nothing.
