Musk Tells G20: Twitter Takeover Has Increased His Workload ‘Quite A Lot’
ForbesAPR 3 2023
The Spin
Narrative A
Musk is spreading himself too thin, and investors see that. He’s hurting two companies at the same time. Although his time at Tesla started in a similar chaotic manner, he has a harder road ahead of him if he’s going to make Twitter a success and get Tesla back to where it was in the spring. The mogul has a lot of work ahead of him.
Narrative B
Musk is a genius, and even the most gifted have permission to make mistakes. There might’ve been some missteps, but we can’t judge Musk until we see what moves he makes next. Companies led by geniuses fare better when they’re governed well, and there’s still a chance for Musk to hire talented managers and calm the Twitter chaos while pioneering with SpaceX and Tesla.
