I'm sure there are thousands of people smarter than Musk. Intelligence is necessary but not sufficient. In fact, being a little too smart is quite detrimental to success. I almost want to say intelligence is orthogonal to running a company but that wouldn't be true. You have to have some intellect, anything above that is not that important.
