Possibly. But not necessarily. In any business, management needs to "inspect and adapt." Agile businesses do so more frequently. But change is not necessarily inspection and adaptation. It can sometimes be throwing things at the wall and hoping they will stick, without properly evaluating each of the things thrown at the wall. Inspection and adaptation also works best when done with discipline. Experiments should are conducted with explicit falsifiable conjectures to test. It may very well be that this course correction is the result of an experiment, and the results have been inspected, and Musk is adapting. or it could be a knee-jerk reaction to cash-flow problems. I am not disagreeing that this may be a founder courageous enough to try experiments and abandon those that invalidate his conjectures. But I want to point out that drastic changes in and of themselves do not necessarily indicate the presence of "inspect and adapt" management.
