Recommendation

By 45 years of age, Elon Musk had built four multibillion-dollar organizations in four disparate industries. What does he do differently from others that makes him so successful? He may be a workaholic with visionary views but, more important, he is also a master of “learning transfer.” Entrepreneur Michael Simmons and consultant Ian Chew pull back the curtain on Musk’s exceptional abilities as an “expert-generalist.” getAbstract recommends this article to business leaders looking for ways to grow intellectually and professionally.

Take-Aways

  • Elon Musk is an “expert-generalist” who can seamlessly transfer knowledge from one field to the next.
  • An expert-generalist is someone who studies a variety of fields in order to understand the deeper principles that connect them.
  • Growing up, Musk sometimes read two books a day and had ever-expanding areas of interest.
