I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m not really sure that anything Elon says is really honest. I suppose I think he honestly has disdain for the former Twitter staff and honestly wants people to work 90 hour weeks but almost everything else is fair game for interpretation. All of his product ideas for Twitter I take with a heaping teaspoon of salt, and I’m not sure if that’s because he’s being dishonest or things are just too in motion. Which does interestingly I think bring up the larger point of trying to be a nice leader in a complex world. This author talks about passive aggressive leadership and withholding tips from servers (which is unquestionably wrong) but I think a lot of leaders really are torn between wanting to treat people with respect, the realities of business, and human fallibility. (FWIW I think this is a huge problem in politics, sure many politicians don’t act in good faith but the ones that do have an impossible task) Which is why there is so many conspiracy theories out there, it’s basically impossible for a leader to be successful and also come across as consistent and fallible, just being in a position like this makes you larger than life.
