Maybe Tesla needs to fail in the market. After seeing how he behaves on twitter, I just cant imagine the chain of command in Tesla works effectively internally. With the leader so fragile in terms of ego, so easy to go ballistic and with seemingly no ethical limits on how he treats those who don't instantly bend to him.
He seems to care more about building personality cult around himself then about running business.
There are plenty of companies with toxic cultures, it is not like that would be unusual. But here, I just cant imagine people under Musk ever telling him he is wrong or telling him about problems. I would guess that his grasp of reality will be increasingly wrong. To a degree it is normal, of course, but
here it seems to go really to extremes.
Many argue that you can't have Tesla without Musk, but I don't believe that's true. There is a paradox that can be observed over and over throughout history: great conquerors rarely make great managers. What Tesla needs now is a manager.

Electric cars will come with or without them.
