Skunkworks, if you haven't yet. Less relevant, but another good read is the Robert Coram biography of John Boyd.
A skunk works is what happens when you decide to remove bureaucratic obstacles, it requires team consensus, political sheltering, and subterfuge.
Boyd managed to get things done without this consensus.
Musk simply eliminates all bureaucratic obstacles from the top.
