Elon Musk's 6 rules for insane productivity (english version)

Elon Musk's 12 rules for insane productivity - en (long version)

Elon Musk sent an email to the staff at Tesla with his 6 rules for productivity.

Unsurprisingly, it leaked.

Here they are:

  1. Avoid large meetings

    Large meetings waste valuable time and energy.

    • They discourage debate

    • People are more guarded than open

    • Thereโ€™s not enough time for everyone to contribute

    Donโ€™t schedule large meetings unless youโ€™re certain they provide value to everyone.

  2. Leave a meeting if youโ€™re not contributing

    If a meeting doesnโ€™t require your:

    • Input

    • Value

    • Decisions

    Your presence is useless.

    Itโ€™s not rude to leave a meeting.

    But itโ€™s rude to waste peopleโ€™s time.

  3. Forget the chain of command

    Communicate with colleagues directly.

    Not through supervisors or managers.

    Fast communicators make fast decisions.

    Fast decisions = competitive advantage.

  4. Be clear, not clever

    Avoid nonsense words and technical jargon.

    It slows down communication.

    Choose words that are:

    • Concise

    • To the point

    • Easy to understand

    Donโ€™t sound smart. Be efficient.

  5. Ditch frequent meetings

    Thereโ€™s no better way to waste everyoneโ€™s time.

    Use meetings to:

    • Collaborate

    • Attack issues head-on

    • Solve urgent problems

    But once you resolve the issue, frequent meetings are no longer necessary.

    You can resolve most issues without a meeting.

    Instead of meetings:

    • Send a text

    • Send an email

    • Communicate on a discord or slack channel

    Donโ€™t interrupt your teamโ€™s workflow if itโ€™s unnecessary.

  6. Use common sense

    If a company rule doesnโ€™t:

    • Make sense

    • Contribute to progress

    • Apply to your specific situation

    Avoid following the rule with your eyes closed.

    Donโ€™t follow rules. Follow principles.
