Real Vision: Finance & Investing

#ad As one of the richest men on Earth and a self-described business maverick, Elon epitomizes the Silicon Valley ethos of “move fast and break things.” And once Elon became Twitter’s new CEO, you were either with him or against him. Those still employed at Twitter soon saw the company and its culture morph into something they didn’t recognize. He laid off 75% of the Twitter workforce, reinstated exceedingly problematic and dangerous users, and even encouraged his staff to sleep in the office. Ex-employees, Elon’s critics, and fellow CEOs were quick to denounce him as an in-over-his-head, rich guy. But Twitter’s doors are still open today. Is Elon all talk or are his unruly methods actually the work of a genius? However you feel about his approach, Elon’s influence is not only ushering in a new era of Twitter but shaping the future of free speech on the internet as we know it.
