Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough

 


Well, many now believe that one of Silicon Valley’s favorite mottos has been activated by Elon Musk at Twitter:


“Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough” - Mark Zuckerberg


Perhaps many didn’t watch Elon’s recent interview with Ron Baron, where he said that before buying Twitter, he was working 80 hours a week, which is about 11 hours and 43 minutes daily, for example, 8:00 AM to 18:43 PM.


After buying Twitter, he said his work rate has increased to 120 hours a week, about 17 hours and 14 minutes daily, for example, 8:00 AM to 00:14 AM.


So, now you have an idea what Elon Musk meant by writing to Twitter staff that they must commit to working "long hours at high intensity" or else leave the company.

The evolution of Twitter under Elon Musk will be very beautiful no doubt.

Elon Musk knows how to make money, and remember that he was a programmer for 20 years.


Twitter is undergoing an interesting evolution.


Thank you.

Something outrageous yet relevant, maybe "Jobs to Be Done: When Your Product Strategy is a Hitman"?

Introduction Picture this: you, in your pristine business attire, meticulously assembled to convey an aura of success – pressed slacks, shiny shoes, maybe even a power tie if you're feeling extra daring. Now, visualize that perfectly curated image lighting on fire. Not a raging inferno, mind you, just a persistent, smoldering burn right around the seat of your pants. It's subtle, insidious, and smells vaguely of burnt ambition. Welcome, dear listener, to my world circa, oh... let's say five years ago. I wasn't an executive. Not even a manager, really. I was cog #3542B in the grand corporate machine, churning out spreadsheets, drowning in meetings, and generally being spoken to in a language only vaguely resembling English. Buzzword bingo was the national sport in those hallowed halls. "Jobs to be Done." "Disruptive innovation." "Blue ocean strategy."  I'd nod earnestly, scribbling notes like my promotion depended on correctly parsing th...
