Chances are you\u2019ve heard of the controversial moves newly-appointed Twitter CEO, Elon Musk, has made so far. Elon\u2019s acquisition of the short-form social media giant began back in April and concluded on October 27, 2022. Since then, Musk has remained in the headlines for controversial moves, such as reinstating previously banned accounts, firing tenured executives, <\/a>offering a subscription-based service to acquire the coveted \u201cverified\u201d checkmark,<\/a> and giving employees an ultimatum. This week, we got an inside look at Elon\u2019s 6 rules for \u201cinsane productivity\u201d thanks to a leaked email from a Twitter employee<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #1: Avoid Large Meetings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Musk claims that large meetings are a waste of time and energy, claiming that they discourage debate, cause group members to become more guarded, and suggesting that there isn\u2019t enough time to give everyone an opportunity to contribute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #2: Leave A Meeting You\u2019re Not Contributing To<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a meeting doesn\u2019t require your input, value, or decisions, your presence is useless. It is not rude to leave the meeting, but it is rude to waste people\u2019s time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #3: Forget The Chain Of Command<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Communicate with colleagues directly, not through supervisors and managers. Musk suggests that faster communication results in faster decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #4: Be Clear, Not Clever<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose words that are concise, to the point, and easy to understand. Don\u2019t try to sound smart or use technical jargon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #5: Do Away With Frequent Meetings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use meetings to collaborate, address issues, and solve urgent problems. Once a resolution is found, frequent meetings are no longer necessary. In lieu of meetings, text, email or communicate via Slack channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #6: Use Common Sense<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a company rule doesn\u2019t make sense, contribute to progress, or apply directly to the situation, avoid following it blindly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the mass exodus of hundreds of Twitter employees, it\u2019s no surprise that Elon Musk has made it a priority to focus on productivity and streamlining daily processes. We\u2019d love to know your thoughts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
