At Psychology Today Blogs, Ronald Riggio argues forcefully that Elon Musk is something less than a role model for effective leadersip. Riggio makes three main points; follow the link for his discussion of each.
- While Elon Musk has been a successful entrepreneur, his dictatorial behavior suggests that he is not a “good” leader.
- Good leadership is about more than just success. Good leaders develop their followers, and treat them with respect and dignity.
- Successful leaders who misbehave and hurt rather than help those whom they lead should not be role models of leadership.
Aside:
As a corporate trainer for many years, I focused on teaching management, leadership, and communication skills.
When it comes to dealing with people, Musk checks all the boxes for the “don’ts.”
