Gabriel Gruber, the owner of a real estate firm, has shared with his followers the rules Musk believes every leader should embrace

The entire world now admits that Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is a genius, and nobody minds taking a suggestion or two from him. 7 productivity recommendations by @elonmusk:1) Excessive meetings are the blight of big companies and almost always get worse over time. Please get of all large meetings, unless you're certain they are providing value to the whole audience in which case keep them very short. 2) Also get rid of frequent meetings, unless you are dealing with an extremely urgent matter. Meeting frequency should drop rapidly once the urgent matter is resolved. 3) Walk out of a meeting or drop off a call as soon as it is obvious you aren't adding value. It is not rude to leave, it is rude to make someone stay and waste their time. 4) Don't use acronyms or nonsense words for objects, software or processes at Tesla. In general, anything that requires an explanation inhibits communication. We don't want people to have to memorize a glossary just to function at Tesla. 6) A major source of issues is poor communication between depts. The way to solve this is allow free flow of information between all levels. If, in order to get something done between depts, an individual contributor has to talk to their manager, who talks to a director 6) A major source of issues is poor communication between depts.

If following a "company rule" is obviously ridiculous in a particular situation, such that it would make for a great Dilbert cartoon, then the rule should change.https://t.co/xfeCYxZx21 Exactly This sounds like the ideal work environment. BS in finance and economics not sure it'll help Tesla. Also extensive background in plumbing. Would like any work sir elon I can not agree more! Will you hire me now? I am fed up with way too many nonsense meetings I have to attend This explain why public school systems don't work after wasting so much money, time, and mostly the previous brainpower. This is how I dream a school system would work. Focus on the student (product) and not on ourselves as educators and systems. Imagine the learning that could get done if we could have access to the things we need to experience an idea. if they cant sum up idea/problem/solution in first minute, that meeting is waste of time. Meetings and conference calls make me want to shoot myself in the face. Unless you're on a call to troubleshoot a system wide issue as quickly as possible, they generally just rehash crap that could have been sent in an email.
