Lead With That What Elon Musk Can Teach Us About Leadership & the Future of Work
The future of work, the future of automobiles, and the future of free speech: At the nexus point of all of these is Elon Musk. Musk has never shied away from the public but recently, through his attempted purchase of Twitter and his recent comments about remote work, he’s once again caught our attention here at CCL. At the center of his comments stem 2 core issues of concern for leaders in this modern era:
1. What does leadership actually look like? Is leadership the role or realm of a single individual? Or can leadership be shared, cultivated, groomed, made to thrive together?
2. What does the future of work really look like? Will remote work actually be put on ice by the world’s most powerful leaders?
These are real questions affecting real people, so in this episode we have to dig in. Is Musk’s point of view a taste of things to come? Or, is it that dying breath of a breed’s last thrashings? Not sure the world’s richest man would appreciate the comparison, and so here we are. Join Allison and Ren as they explore what lessons we can glean from the recent headlines involving Elon Musk and lead with that.
