Anger, narrow-mindedness and paranoia: that’s why you should be glad Elon Musk isn’t your boss

He won’t accept no. If someone says that something is not possible, there is the risk of a tantrum. Or he can pack his bags. Elon Musk crosses boundaries as he unfolds his vision, his ideas and makes demands. It’s his weakness and his strength, concludes Tim Higgins, automotive and technology reporter for The Wall Street Journal in his book Power Play with the telling subtitle Tesla, Elon Musk and the gamble of the century. It is a fascinating story about trial and error, about a turbulent search for the ultimate. “Faith created a vision, the vision created a market, the market created money, and money created cars,” Higgins said. All under the leadership of Elon Musk, who leaves no room for compromise, who pushes himself and others to the limit, meddles in every detail, blames others when he overthinks and things go wrong, making himself his greatest danger. Contrasted with his vision and enthusiasm is an extremely large ego, narrow-mindedness, a short temper, paranoia and excessive Twitter behaviour.
