How would you compare GM and Tesla using this framework? They're both very tech dependent given the impact of the chip shortage and electric car manufacture, but one is certainly more "novel." I'm honestly not sure where I would come out, but I think it's a good point of comparison for the framework as a result.
- SkipperCat 5y agoBoth of them are tech companies. One in battery and AI/ML self driving software, the other in supply chain management.
- gitfan86 5y agoTesla is an engineering based company. GM is a MBA based company. It isn't that Tesla has no MBAs on staff or the GM has no engineers on staff. But a culture that leverages engineering culture can iterate and reinvent itself and include new technologies faster than one who is focused on management metrics. I'm not saying that MBAs are bad, there are plenty of companies that went way to heavy on hiring engineers and went bankrupt before their business plan was viable.
