Episode notes

Elon Musk might be known for rockets, EVs, and AI.... but his real edge? Ruthless simplification.

In this episode, Brian Gubernick breaks down the five-step system Elon teaches all of his teams -- engineers, execs, operators -- for eliminating waste and scaling smarter. It’s not just for billionaires or rocket scientists. This framework applies to every team, every system, every business. And if you’re honest, there’s at least one bloated process in your life or business that could use a teardown.

This episode is your blueprint for building lean, fast, high-performance systems, and a challenge to stop polishing garbage and start scaling excellence. --
