Elon's Brutal Meeting Rule: "If You Don't Add Value, Get Out"

Abstract generation in progress

A masterclass in cutting through the bullshit.

Elon, the eccentric billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, doesn't waste a second on pointless meetings—and thinks you shouldn't either. His core philosophy? If you're not contributing or getting something useful from a meeting, just walk out.

It's not about being rude—it's about respecting everyone's time. In Elon's world, meetings exist solely for problem-solving, collaboration, and decisive action. If someone's presence isn't moving the needle, they're better off directing their energy elsewhere.

I've witnessed this approach firsthand, and while it might seem harsh, there's something refreshingly honest about it. Too many corporate cultures worship at the altar of endless meetings where people sit zombie-like, scrolling through emails while pretending to listen.

What's fascinating is how this brutal efficiency contrasts with his recent awkward reunion with Trump at Kirk's memorial service—where neither seemed to add much "value" to each other despite their brief handshake. Perhaps they should have followed Elon's own rule and just walked away?

This isn't just about meetings—it's about a mindset that rejects corporate theater. In crypto trading, we could learn from this. How much time do we waste in useless Discord calls or Telegram groups where nothing of substance happens?
