Elon Musk’s Top 10 Most Influential Presentations

If one has to draw comparisons between Tesla chief Elon Musk and Marvel Comics heartthrob Tony Stark, chances are they will come up with an endless list. And why wouldn’t they? The 49-year-old technology entrepreneur, inventor and philanthropist, who recently joined the league of centibillionares, might as well just push a button on his watch and turn into an iron suit-clad man in front of an arena full of tech business representatives and customers.

While as much as the Silicon Valley has magnetized towards all that Elon Musk has to offer, his growing net worth has come from a personality and competitive skill that only few have been able to accomplish as CEOs or investors of startups and corporations alike.

However, if there is a product or company that Musk has gotten behind, it has done more than just adding value to the customer or offering a futuristic service. It has catapulted the thoughts of ordinary humans into those of extraordinary beings capable of doing more without putting in much effort.

And how has the world been introduced to these revolutionary products? With a presentation by Musk, of course! Keeping up with the trend of product unveil that tech giants leverage to grow their audience, Elon Musk has offered the future to the people with a giant thought-provoking presentation regarding every milestone he has been able to achieve (or create). For instance, the recipe to bring Tesla to life (and to over 400 billion dollar market valuation recently) has taken grit, passion, and (obviously) Elon Musk himself uncovering the wonders that the company was able to create with an inspiring presentation.

Notably, however, if one observes Elon Musk as he stands on the stage and rolls out another fascinating marvel using just his words, they would find his presenting style to be something that public speaking gurus might feel at odds with. And yet the occasional and eventual stutter just does not seem to fade Musk’s presentation at all. Instead, it is something that builds up his presentation quotient to an evocative level, something that implores the audience want to have a piece of what is on the shelf of Musk Inc. We break down 10 such presentations and Elon Musk’s USP in each of them in this blog.

Top 10 presentations with which Elon Musk made a mark

1. neuralink.

We are starting off with a bang. Imagine an amalgam of artificial intelligence (AI) and humans. If this seemed like a scene from a sci-fi movie to you, then you may be in for a surprise. With Neuralink, a system of 4x4mm microchips installed into a human brain to carry out neural and limbic functions on machines, Elon Musk gives us the option to merge with AI as per our choice. In fact, the idea behind developing Neuralink is to provide a third layer of super-intelligence that is not hindered by the use of thumbs on the device screens.

Working with the basic principles of neuroscience, Musk has come up with a digital synapse as happens between the neurons in our brains for any type of functionality. In the presentation for the launch of Neuralink, Musk explains how the interspersed communication between neural entities can be tapped using microscopic electrodes that are fitted into the microchip.

Not only that, Neuralink aims to address brain and spinal cord issues by helping neurosurgeons collect data from the microchips, an aspect that tends to enable differently-abled people to move and heal with their minds in a literal sense. In fact, in the recent development at Neuralink, developers have been able to graph neural signals using a coin-sized chip in a pig’s brain . Making waves sure comes easy when coupled with a presentation like that.

Presentation USP: He gives the audience a show

A prominent theme in Elon Musk’s presentation for something as ambitious as Neuralink is starting with something eye-catching, mostly a video. For Neuralink, for instance, the presentation spans how the product will enable an interface of the machine and the mind with recurrent moving shots of doctors and engineers. The video then shows how something as basic as a synapse in the brain forms the foundation of the product. As for Musk, the presenting begins in his own style for an audience that has been gripped by what is offered by that teaser video.

2. Tesla Energy

If solar is the future of our energy needs, this presentation by Elon Musk cements the fact that there will be a paradigm shift in the way we utilize sunlight. Musk explains with Tesla’s Powerwall will harness the energy from sun rays and transform our needs to have sources of energy generation. In fact, with Powerwall, Tesla has projected to take the United States of America to a zero-carbon electricity situation. And that too by using nothing but rooftops of homes.

Musk explains how fossil fuel energy makes a detrimental impact and how solar power, a completely harmless and non-polluting source of energy, stays underutilized. That is what Tesla Power is about. Area-wise too, the Powerwall makes it possible to achieve that transition by using batteries over a piece of land the size of a pixel as compared to the area of the entire United States. As the presentation moves ahead, Musk explains how it is a scalable solution for energy needs in remote inaccessible areas. Not having electricity lines and being able to run an entire house on solar power? Quite an ingenious feat!

Presentation USP: He keeps the humor quotient intact (without overdoing it)

Not that Musk did not give the audience the show they came for, he actually blew their mind away by showing the Tesla Powerwall in action. In fact, he wows the audience with the fact that the entire building where the presentation was being conducted was running on solar energy after all. The highlight of the presentation, however, stays that he engages the audience with the occasional humor or a chuckle while keeping the minds hooked about the product.

Notice in the video how he just calls the sun a “handy fusion reactor in sky” and elicits laughter from the attendees. The USP here is that he makes the audience feel comfortable and, thus, inclined towards actually listening what he has to say. Something to take a note of while charming the audience in your next pitch meeting.

3. Tesla Cybertruck 

Tesla’s innovation drive has stayed unparalleled over the years. Battery-powered automotives of the future have been calling out to potential customers and investors of the company from time to time. Another presentation by Elon Musk, which has made an impact in the minds of these stakeholders, features the super-rugged Tesla Cybertruck. With this presentation Musk has given us a kaleidoscope to view the otherwise ordinary objects with a technologically advanced angle.

In the presentation, Musk elucidates how the Cybertruck is the more futuristic take on the run-of-the-mill trucks that run on fossil fuels. Tesla has manufactured the Cybertruck in single, double and tri-motor configuration for flexible performance and power. Aesthetically, it looks something straight out of a Transformers movie. The vehicle also boasts of cold-rolled stainless steel and Tesla Armor glass, while the bulletproof body (capable of taking quite the beating of a sledgehammer and a 9mm bullet) along with the demonstration fired up the audience to shout “Take my money”, “I love it” and so on and so forth. Besides the truck, Elon Musk also took the opportunity to showcase another hi-tech means of electric transport — an ATV meant as an off-road bike which can be loaded to the back of the Cybertruck via a built-in ramp.

Presentation USP: He bounces back well

Coming to the most talked about aspect of this presentation, one thing that set the world (and the internet) on fire was when a demonstrator on the stage was asked by Musk to throw metal balls at the glass windows of the Cybertruck. The demonstrator did and the glass broke, though the ball did not go through. The demonstrator tried it on the rear window. Same results!

Even though just minutes before Musk had demonstrated how tough the Tesla Armor is through an experiment using the metal ball from above, here’s where his unique ability as a presenter came through. “May be that was a little too hard,” said Musk with chuckles from the audience. And then he says, “We’ll fix it in post.” More laughter! Here one can learn to tide over mistakes and not let it bother you. When Musk says tough, he means it.

4. Tesla Semi Truck 

With every product that Elon Musk has fathomed, almost every industry, especially the electric vehicles industry, has benefitted from it tremendously. With mass transportation and smart logistics gaining traction, Tesla has also tapped into the potential of electric vehicles for goods transportation with the Tesla Semi truck. During the presentation, Musk elaborates how the beast is capable of giving traditional diesel engine trucks a run for their money. Designed like a bullet to achieve low drag coefficient, the Tesla Semi is capable of achieving 0 to 60 miles per hour in 5 seconds without the load.

Musk also explains how the truck offers the driver a racecar experience with just a single gear and spacious interior. He also threw light on how Tesla megachargers, with solar energy as the primary source, can get the vehicle charged while you take a break from your journey. Musk also highlighted how the truck is capable of safety positioning, avoiding jackknifing and alerting emergency services when needed, something that truckers and manufacturers take interest in alike.

Presentation USP: He lets visuals speak for the data

No doubt, the Tesla Semi is a reflection of the genius of Elon Musk. The presentation, however, also puts a spotlight on how the PayPal founder lays emphasis on representing data with mind probing animations. For instance, he offers the audience a perspective of how good the Tesla Semi is by using an animated model going up a speed bar against a diesel truck. Though he also uses humor to highlight how painfully slow the diesel vehicle is, he enables the audience to retain the 0-60mph bit with a visual. Another bite of perspective is when he pitted the Cybertruck against a Porsche 911 in a race. He builds upon a quality of the product with a good visual. And he knows how to do it well.

5. SpaceX Starship 

Speaking of doing things well, Elon Musk has gone bigger and better with every product launch presentation he has ever given. SpaceX, a rocket and spacecraft manufacturing company of which Musk is the founder, had built the Starship, a spacecraft that is aimed at taking humans among the stars and making them “glad to be alive”. The presentation shows what it is like to usher into the future where space travel is like air travel. You just grab your cargo and stuff and make a round-trip to the Moon or Mars, all in that magnificent spacecraft.

And of course, how did Musk capture that magnificence? Outside in the open on a huge airbase for rocket launch, of course! Aligned with the magnitude of Elon Musk’s vision of space exploration, the presentation also includes a display on the Falcon 1 rocket that was able to get launched successfully, paving the way for interplanetary travel.  More so, Musk explains how one can travel 25 times the speed of sound with the help of the space vehicle and feel just the acceleration during the commute.

Presentation USP: He believes in the product

If one looks at the presentation from a public speaker’s point of view, they will find Musk using a lot of filler words for describing what he has conceived as humans’ gateway to Mars. But all that is outweighed by the fact that no matter the size of the product that he is presenting, Musk knows what goes where inside out. He stays focused on keeping the audience engaged with the right amount of data to make it credible, no matter how ambitious.

In fact, the SpaceX Starship mission, Musk has said, is moving at a good progress rate, barring the delay in schedule for test flights . During the presentation, Musk also gives audience a video demo of how the Starship fires up while later juxtaposing it with another space vehicle called Starhopper. The whole process so mesmerizing that the audience jeers and claps. And yes, that will soon be the sound for man starting a new life on Mars too.

6. Powerwall 2 

Another one of Elon Musk’s most influential presentations is the Powerwall 2 unveil. Just like the Starship presentation, this one also takes place on a very apt location — a house yard with the sun shining before dusk. But in fact, this house has the Tesla solar roof that powers the Powerwall 2 integrated with the house. Musk shows how the house nearby has roofing of slate glass tiles as part of the solar roof. He also shows another house with the modern smooth glass tile that goes from transparent to opaque as the viewing angle changes. A similar effect is demonstrated on a Tuscan glass tile.

With the Powerwall 2, Musk offers a three-part solution with an appealing solar roof, combined with storage and electric cars. In fact, the Tesla product combined with solar roof gives the audience a glimpse into a more affordable and durable roofing solution. And Musk shows the attendees each type of roof tile and how it looks at a certain angle. The presentation is also about how the Tesla Powerwall 2 is integrated with the solar roof and enables running the house on affordable solar power.

Presentation USP: He knows his audience     

The reason why an Elon Musk presentation is able to leave an impact is because he crafts and delivers the presentation with his audience in mind. With Powerwall 2 unveil, the PayPal founder taps into the more pressing matter for the humankind — air pollution. Basically, he knows that the audience is gravitating towards Tesla for a renewable energy solution. So he brings the problem out front by giving the figure about record CO2 levels of that time. Of course, he substantiates that this is majorly because of fossil fuel energy generation. But he also brings out the reason why the Powerwall 2 is the solution, a level up from the predecessor Powerwall. Musk taps into the potential of a good demonstration too and shows the houses running on the solar energy through the Powerwall 2. Showing things in action gets the audience fired up about the product. In fact, it offers them a mindset for a cleaner and more sustainable future. How inspiring is that!

7. Tesla Model 3 

For Tesla, the drive to become bigger and better has come through years of perseverance and keen observation of consumer needs. In the Tesla Model 3 unveil, Elon Musk has leveraged the power of 3D animations to trace the progress that the company has made with each electric vehicle. Starting from the automotive wonder Roadster, Musk talks about various performance and cost aspects of the vehicle, moves on to Model S with superior features, and then onto Model X. He displayed them at the arena to get the audience on board with the journey of electric vehicles at Tesla.

“Can you fit a 7-foot-long surfboard inside the Tesla Model 3? The answer is, yes, you can!” says Musk as he elaborates how the vehicle is spacious enough to fit five people inside. He also builds up on how one will be able to go where they want to go with the help of superchargers and destination chargers. “If there is electricity, you will be able to charge your car,” Musk avers. Thereafter, he also elucidates how Tesla will work on producing half a million cars a year by becoming the largest manufacturer of the most advanced Lithium ion cells and batteries.

Presentation USP:  He isn’t trying to sell

As any presenter with a product pitch would swear by, Elon Musk also makes it a point to appeal to the senses and not try to sell his product. In fact, he just lists the benefits of his product from the customer’s point of view. How is it better? How is it cheaper? Why will it work for the average American who wants to plan his/her spending on a car that runs on electricity? What is the future scope of the product?

When Musk spreads out these benefits in front of his audience, they automatically get the audience hooked because it is from their point of view, not from a sales pitch point of view. In fact, it was within 24 hours before this presentation that Tesla had got around 115,000 orders for the Model 3. The audience has in fact turned into a potential customer just by the way he presented the product. And all that is bound to rise in the future too, thanks to Elon Musk serving perspective.

8. The Boring Company presentation

We have all been on the receiving end of troublesome traffic jam. And that hassle is only going to increase in the future. But who has come up with the solution to that persistent problem? Elon Musk, of course. His company, The Boring Company, has been developing tunneling solutions to provide futuristic underground transport services that will be put in place with the least disturbance to the existing infrastructure. In fact, Musk has unveiled this concept to show how the company’s work of digging and tunneling is economically viable and ergonomically superior to the traditional mode of tunneling, which, Musk says, is “as slow as a snail”.

Along with improving tunneling methods, Musk believes they can triple the output of boring machines into making a three-dimensional transport network. Besides, the company also aims to introduce hyperloops for commutes as fast as 200kmph. Even better is the production aspect of the system wherein the dug up material can be used to make bricks, a better alternative to the large scale concrete production in the world.

Presentation USP: He keeps it fresh and unique (every time)

As disruptive as The Boring Company’s ambition may seem, Elon Musk has addressed the worsening issue of billion dollar productivity loss due to traffic delays with his concept. In fact, a 1.2 mile-long test tunnel from the SpaceX office in Los Angeles has been in place for a long time. So something that brings down 900 million dollar per mile tunneling process to just 10 million or even lower had to be presented in a unique way. And Elon Musk does just that. He launched the presentation at the mouth of such a tunnel driving his Tesla vehicle. Even with every product launch, he has brought out something different, giving the people that want for more. He did the same with this presentation, and did it in style once again.

9. Tesla Model Y 

Speaking of doing things in style, Elon Musk has captured the pulse of tech and automotive enthusiasts across the globe with product unveil presentation. Each presentation has been about the next big thing in technology and the way we live our lives on earth. And sure, Tesla Model Y presentation shows it all. Musk has taken the opportunity to graph the trajectory of Tesla vehicles by bringing out the various models developed over the years to the stage one by one. And before Model Y unveil, the Tesla Model S, X, 3, and original and new generation Roadsters are driven to the stage amid loud cheers from the attendees.

A spectacular video precedes the unveil on the huge screen with which Musk explains how Tesla added value to the next generation electric vehicles with Model Y. Musk shines the light on how this model has functionality of an SUV and ride like a sports car. Emphasizing safety features being the priority of such vehicles, Musk elaborates the standard autopilot, 7 seat capacity, 0-60mph pickup in 3.5 seconds, and a panoramic glass roof. He ends the presentation by inviting the audience to come up to the stage and check out the car for themselves.

Presentation USP:  He presents shift in criticism as an impact

As someone who has enabled humans to have digital dreams beyond this planet, Elon Musk has faced quite the media scan, criticism and negative opinions as Tesla spread its wings. But in this particular presentation, he has shown the audience how the company had been able to tide over with its persistent and disruptive efforts. The presentation shows media report clippings calling electric cars “an extraordinarily bad idea”, or “a glorified golf car” or even “a waste of space” in 2009 and 2011.

However, Musk also mentioned the eventual change in such perception with prominent media houses lauding it with headline pieces like “General Motors is going all electric” or “Volkswagen is betting its future on electric cars”. With this, Musk was able to show that if one can dream big, he can make an impact, a common theme that runs through every presentation that the SpaceX chief delivers.

10. Caltech commencement speech

This one may not be about bringing a bedazzling car onto a platform. Rather this one is about what resources and ideas went into pioneering companies like Paypal, SpaceX and Tesla when Elon Musk was getting his formative education. While delivering the speech at the 118 th commencement ceremony of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena in 2012, the Zip2 founder puts together the pieces of the magic that is technology, and how young minds can make that magic happen for the 21 st century. He also implores the graduates to build a prototype before starting off with a company. Watch the inspiring speech here:

Presentation USP: No matter the platform, he is (and stays) himself

What makes this presentation worth mentioning as an influential one is that it gives us a glimpse into the beginnings of a brilliant mind and how ideas can run the world of future. As from a public speaking point of view, one will find that he is not pretending to be someone. Rather he is being himself and connecting with the graduates on that personal and heart-to-heart level. He also does not shy away from cracking jokes about himself and his “crazy” ideas, and thus, stays connected with the attendees, making them want to listen with intent and passion.

So in conclusion, one can see how Elon Musk is imperfectly perfect while giving a presentation. But it’s the passion and perspective with which he introduces us to mind-boggling products that makes us equate him to Iron Man. And who knows, he might even be! We will just have to hold our breaths until then.

Presentation inspiration from Elon Musk

Do you wonder how to make an influencing and more realistic live conversation with your audience in the 21st century? Then, in this article, we are bringing a fresh outlook to this question with particular reference to the Elon Musk presentation style . To make the analysis easier, we have used one of his widely applauded presentations as a central reference.

An innovator turned business person and a real genius, Elon Musk needs no introduction. The epitome of brilliance is best known for his role in transforming the realm of global business & technology  innovations, through a series of awe-inspiring and breakthrough ventures: Tesla (designing and making of electric cars); SolarCity (the US’s first provider of residential solar power); PayPal (the worldwide online payment system); Hyperloop (a conceptual high-speed transportation system) and the grandiose of all – SpaceX, the endeavor to establish a human colony on Planet Mars.

A few days back, Tesla announced the Second Generation of Powerwall – its battery system, but in May 2015, when Musk had publically announced the launch of Powerwall, the world had to take notice of his presentation, because it was inspiring in more than one ways.

Well, he began this presentation with highlighting how the global environment was worsening due to the pollution from fossil fuel based power generation plants, and then took it forward to explain how solar energy could resolve this issue and the role of Tesla’s new battery system in this mission. He also talked about product availability and price.

Seems like a regular Table of Contents, huh? Then, what is so likable about his style? Here are the highlights as to what works out well to make Elon Musk a truly inspiring presenter.

Elon Musk – As a speaker:

It is a clever combination of the vision and how he delivers his message – that received a big applause across the globe. He anchors a frank, honest, genuine and engaging conversation throughout, without any shade of manipulation. No glitter, no fluffs. However, he passes on his message to everyone, and in the most sensible manner. Here is how:

Start with a right target and scenario:

Ambiguity kills the interest. Keeping this in mind, Musk began with targeting the worldwide use of fossil fuels to generate electricity and the effects on the environment. He used the graphical presentation and ran two scenarios: with fossil fuels and with naturally available solar power. Even the images were chosen smartly which clearly indicated the superiority of solar energy over the polluting, dirty fossil fuels. This simplified it for the audience to co-relate the product concept with the present day crisis, and also helped them switch between two different states and compare them against each other to blow away any objections.

Focus on fundamentals and need of an hour:

The followers of Musk would admit that every time he connects with his audience, he throws up some out-of-the-box ideas, all of which offers something to improve our lives. Against this visionary trait, those minute slips and frequently heard fillers in speech do not matter. The world recognizes him as a person of ideas and since decades, he has been seeing and realizing his world-changing dreams. In the case of Powerwall too, he focused on transmitting the crucial issues with environment, all on the account of the heavy usage of fossil fuels and how the solar energy could take care of it.

Make a contextual and meaningful comparison of data:

When you sell a product with high technical details along with the universal application, it is important that you represent the data in a clever way that makes sense to the most novice part of the audience. The capability to deal with data and statistics could differ from individual to individual and the trick to tackle this is to use various known contexts against which you can compare your data. This is what Musk has done throughout the presentation.

The best contextual explanation was the “Blue Square” and “One Pixel”: He showed a tiny spot on Texas – the “Blue Square” – in the blank map of the US to contextually present as to how much land area would be covered by the solar panels to empower the US. And in that Blue Square, he put a red dot. Later on, he zoomed in the screen and described that dot as a single pixel, which indicated the space used for the batteries in this endeavor.

He also talked about Powerpack, the device with a working principle similar to Powerwall, but with multiple times higher in the capacity. While talking about Powerpack, he again made a smart use of context to help the data look more digestible and easily achievable.

Motivate them to an immediate action:

Be it an eBook subscription or buying battery, it is important that you make your audience believe why they need to take action today and why they just should not delay it further. The reason why it is hard to close the sales call is that the target audience always has that notion that things were pretty Ok even before this product came into the market so why it has suddenly been a call for an action. Things would work out themselves etc. So, the catch behind every successful sales call is to make the audience feel that today is the right time, and any further delay would bring a catastrophe. That’s called the sense of urgency, which is what Musk smartly advocated by the CO2 concentration data and follow up statements like “we should collectively do something about this..”

Perceived problems v/s proposed solutions:

It is imperative that you lay down the commonly perceived hurdles right before they arise in the minds of your audience and also offer solutions to them. This elevates your status in the eyes of your audience and boosts their confidence on your product as they feel that you have done a required legwork. Musk effectively applied this tip when he talked about problems with currently used batteries, the need for Powerwall (to store the solar energy during the daylight) and the land requirements explained with the help of “Blue Square” context (as mentioned before).

Word selection – Simple and engaging:

Musk knows the pulse of the audience, in the sense that he uses layman terms to present the techiest of the information in an understandable manner. He has the skill to talk about his great and fantastic ideas in a way everyone can relate.

Essentially, it’s a sales pitch and must solve the purpose. The presentation was meant for a wider market and so data representation in generic terms was a key to keeping the interest of the audience intact. The entire 18-minutes slot was exciting and filled with humor wherever possible.

Attitude matters:

As a speaker, Musk has a humble, approachable and also a bit of casual attitude due to which he looks realistic and far away from those well-practiced speeches. His honesty appears effortlessly and pays him well all the way! In fact, he has not attempted to seem flamboyant in spite of having a real breakthrough in his hands for tackling the global environmental challenge. Modesty is always inspirational. He focuses more on convincing the audience about how relevant his idea is.

Check out the statements he used:

“..It’s something that we must do, and we can do, and we will do..”

“Tesla is not the only one…”

Make it memorable with the use of live evidence:

You can’t under-rate the importance of the early users of your products and/or beta versions as well as the testimonials which work for building a first-hand image for your product. Creating a live product use case can be a smart technique to impress the audience, make the first experience memorable and lasting, measure the impacts in real time and conduct a hands-on primary research.

It made the presentation all the more memorable when Musk revealed that the auditorium rooftop had solar panels installed, who fed the Powerwall and powered the entire building (where the talk was held) that night. He also asked the cameras to show the meters which were displaying that there was no grid-based energy used at all! The howling was terrible because the audience was amazed by what they were experiencing.

Break the stereotypes:

Differentiation helps create lasting memories, and so, Musk broke many industry stereotypes. The audience also included industry fans and avid supporters who kept on cheering up on each punch. And so, unlike other automobile launches, this launch show appeared entertaining and catchy. Also, Musk revealed the cost of the device. The automobile industry peers do not disclose crucial facts like price or even simple estimates too, during the launch.

Keep it concise and straight:

TED has researched that an ideal presentation length should not be more than 18 minutes, which is the threshold for an average man’s listening capacity. Musk could keep it simple, to-the-point and precise so as to finish it within 18 minutes. To punch with the power, he used various means such as graphs, images, videos as well as the physical products.

Storytelling Approach:

Musk used a storytelling approach. Use of impactful images and less text to support the scenarios. The image display was stunning and able to create a necessary extent of distress regarding worsening environment and also the promising success of the solar energy. Other notable features:

• Less than 10-12 slides.
• Product samples.
• Live product use.
• Product video embedded in the presentation

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos Banned PowerPoint. Here's Why

Presentations have obvious benefits for presenters, but the audience tends to chafe. here's what your company should be doing instead..

As I've previously pointed out,  Steve Jobs hated PowerPoint , and many top CEOs (including Jeff Bezos , Elon Musk, and Mark Cuban ) won't even sit through a traditional presentation, if they can help it. 

However, as many readers have pointed out, there are plenty of presentations inside the companies that these CEOs run. Why the inconsistency? Why don't these CEOs simply ban presentations altogether?

Indeed, considering that most people "hate PowerPoints" (i.e., presentations), you'd think that such a move would prove quite popular. But few if any companies ban presentations completely. What gives?

PowerPoint (and its clones and alternatives) continues to be a huge part of our corporate culture because presentations, when compared with finished documents, provide three huge advantages to the presenter at the expense of the audience. Specifically:

1. Presentations take less time and effort to create.

Writing a coherent document or speech requires starting with an outline, followed by a relatively long period of word-crafting and, in the case of a speech, rehearsal. With a presentation, you're basically done once you've created the outline. You don't have to do the hard part of actually writing anything because, even if you practice the presentation, you're essentially winging it.

2. Presentations can be changed on the fly.

Once you've written and distributed a formal document, you've put a stake in the ground. Readers will gauge your competence, intelligence, and allegiances on the basis of what you've written. With a presentation, though, you can gauge the attitude of your audience and make midcourse corrections either by saying something different or skipping over slides.

3. Presentations require virtually no writing skill.

Formal documents, ideally, must be grammatically correct, readable, and tightly written, which requires writing skills that can only be developed through long practice. Presentations, however, needn't even contain complete sentences. In fact, complete sentences in presentations tend to distract, because the audience reads them rather than listening to the presenter.

However, from the perspective of the audience, presentations have huge disadvantages compared with formal documents. Specifically:

1. Presentations proceed at a snail's pace.

A normal human can read and understand a formal document of three pages in as many minutes. That same information provided as a presentation might require as much as an hour, unless the presenter speaks like an auctioneer. And even then it would it take 15 minutes.

2. Presentations contain half-baked ideas.

Outlines are, by definition, unfinished thoughts. The process of putting ideas into formal sentences and paragraphs hones those ideas, which is why people will pay money for business books but not presentations.

3. Presentations permit informational "Jell-O."

There's an old saying in business: "You can't pin Jell-O to the wall." Because presenters can customize on the fly, they can weasel out of saying anything that could get them into trouble.

4. Presentations encourage cabalistic diagrams.

Presenters tend to arrange their outlines into graphically connected boxes to show how those elements are related. Such diagrams are seldom useful and frequently impenetrable.

5. Presentations can't be easily reviewed.

Because presentations aren't complete without the words that the presenter says to the audience, the only way to review a presentation is to listen to it. Yes, you can play a recording of the presentation at 2x or 4x, but that's still much slower than scanning a document.

As you can see, the advantages of PowerPoint are all to the presenter, while the disadvantages are all to the audience.

That's why when people say "I hate PowerPoint" they're talking about being subjected to other people's presentations. You never hear people say "I hate creating presentations." Why would they? Presentations are a good deal ... for the presenter.

CEOs ban PowerPoint (i.e., presentations) because, as  "big bosses," they can demand that their underlings do the extra work required to create formal documents, which the CEOs can skim with the expectation that they're spending their valuable time on finished ideas rather than Jell-O-ish outlines.

Inside those companies, however, there's less of a power differential, so workers essentially agree to be tortured by their co-workers' presentations, as long as they're allowed to torture everyone else in turn.

ELON MUSK The Man who aims for the stars

Birth & Upbringing • Elon Musk was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria, South Africa. He obtained his Canadian citizenship in 1989, in part because he felt it would be easier to obtain American citizenship via that path. In 2002, he achieved his goal of becoming a U.S. citizen. • He was a son of a Canadian mother and a South African father, Elon Musk spent his early childhood with his brother Kimbal and sister Tosca in South Africa. At 10, around the time his parents divorced, so the introverted Elon developed an interest in computers.

Timeline of companies and major events • He founded X.comin 1999 (which later became PayPal), SpaceX in 2002 and Tesla Motors in 2003. Musk became a multimillionaire in his late 20s when he sold his start-up company, Zip2, to a division of Compaq Computers. •  He bolstered his portfolio with the purchase of SolarCity in 2016, and cemented his standing as a leader of industry by taking on an advisory role in the early days of President Donald Trump's administration. • Musk has also been working on side projects such as Hyperloop, AI, Boring company and the high speed train.

Zip2 was a company that provided and licensed online city guide software to newspapers. The company was founded in Palo Alto, California as Global Link Information Network in 1995, by brothers Elon and Kimbal Musk and Greg Kouri. • Initially, Global Link provided local businesses with an Internet presence, but later began to assist newspapers in designing online city guides before being purchased by Compaq Computer in 1999. • Musk used the money gained from Zip2 and started his new company X.com (later known as PayPal).

X.Com (PayPal) • In 1999, Musk co-founded X.com, an online financial services/payments company. • An X.com acquisition the following year led to the creation of PayPal as it is known today, and in October 2002, PayPal was acquired by eBay for $1.5 billion in stock. Before the sale, Musk owned 11 percent of PayPal stock. • PayPal acts as an in-between between and the people you are buying from. It's primary use is theoretically ensuring that your credit card information is secure. PayPal is a middle man.

SpaceX • Musk founded his third company, Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, or SpaceX, in 2002 with the intention of building spacecraft for commercial space travel. • On May 22, 2012, Musk and SpaceX made history when the company launched its Falcon 9 rocket into space with an unmanned capsule. • In March 2017, SpaceX saw the successful test flight and landing of a Falcon 9 rocket made from reusable parts, a development that opened the door for more affordable space travel. • The company enjoyed another milestone moment in February 2018 with the successful test launch of the powerful Falcon Heavy rocket

tesla • Musk is the co-founder, CEO and product architect at Tesla Motors, a company dedicated to producing affordable, mass-market electric cars. • In April 2017, Tesla announced that it surpassed General Motors to become the most valuable U.S. car maker.  • Tesla's (TSLA)market value has climbed to almost $48 billion surpassing Ford and nearly the same as GM. • Musk’s vision of electric cars taking over the automobile industry is nearly coming true as Tesla’s affordable model 3 has now given customers an electric car (with lifetime free charging) with a price contrasting with other gasoline sedans.

Solarcity • In August 2016, in Musk’s continuing effort to promote and advance sustainable energy and products for a wider consumer base, a $2.6 billion dollar deal was solidified to combine his electric car and solar energy companies. His Tesla Motors Inc. announced an all-stock deal purchase of Solar City Corp., a company Musk had helped his cousins start in 2006. He is a majority shareholder in each entity. • Solar City is America's #1 full-service solar provider. • They make clean energy available to homeowners, businesses, schools, non-profits and government organizations at a lower cost than they pay for energy generated by burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas.

Other Inventions & Innovations • In August 2013, Elon Musk released a concept for a new form of transportation called the "Hyperloop," an invention that would foster commuting between major cities while severely cutting travel time. • Elon Musk has pursued an interest in Artificial Intelligence, becoming co-chair of the non-profit Open “AI”. The research company launched in late 2015 with the stated mission of advancing digital intelligence to benefit humanity. • In January 2017 Elon Musk launched yet an other innovation “The Boring Company” ,suddenly deciding he was going find a way to reduce traffic by devoting resources to boring and building tunnels. 

Challenges faced by musk during his road to success • From a very young age musk was bullied at school. • The Board of Directors, looking at the long run, removed Musk as the CEO of his own companycalled Zip2. • He was then ousted as CEO from his next company (PayPal) after a disagreement. • while on a vacation to his native country South Africa, he experienced a near-death experience. Then he saw his son die who was 10 weeks old. • At SpaceX he was on the verge of bankruptcy and had money for only one launch. • The launch of Tesla was delayed and the company also faced severe financial issues, coming very close to shutting down. • After pumping all his money into Tesla and SpaceX, Musk was running dry. Musk was living on personal loans from friends since October 2009.

The Story of elon musk

Lessons to be Learned from Elon Musk • 1. “Focus on the impact of your dreams, not the odds”. Elon Musk has taught me that dreams do come true if you work hard and don’t let the failures come in the way of your success as ‘the days that break you are the ones that make you who you are’. • 2. No one does amazing things for the money.: He has also taught me that world changing thingsare not done for the money, they are done to change the world. • 3. Constantly question yourself He has also taught me that by questioning yourself, you make better decisions as when Elon saw how expensive the used Russian rockets were, he then questioned himself whether he needed to buy rockets whenhe could make them himself.

The company that you like I personally like SpaceX as Elon’s vision to make cheap yet effective rockets and the dream to settle on Mars is truly fascinating. The hardships he faced while making ,funding SpaceX and facing the problems such as failed tests is very remarkable to see as in the end he was able overcome every problem which shows hard work and passion does pay off in the end.

Un d&#237a un grupo de ni&#241os lo empuj&#243 por unas escaleras de hormig&#243n y le patearon hasta que su cara se hinch&#243 como una pelota. Pas&#243 una semana en el hospital. Pero las cicatrices f&#237sicas fueron insignificantes comparadas con las emocionales, las que le hab&#237a causado su padre, un canalla, ingeniero carism&#225tico y fantasioso. Cuando Elon lleg&#243 a casa tras ser dado de alta del hospital, su padre le reprendi&#243. &#171Tuve que escucharlo durante una hora mientras me gritaba, me llamaba idiota y me dec&#237a que era un in&#250til&#187, recuerda.El impacto psicol&#243gico que su padre le caus&#243 perdur&#243. Se convirti&#243 en un joven fuerte pero vulnerable al mismo tiempo, propenso a bruscos cambios de humor&#8212a lo Jekyll y Hyde&#8212con una gran tolerancia al riesgo, ansias de drama, un &#233pico sentido de misi&#243n y una intensidad man&#237aca, cruel y a veces destructiva.A principios de 2022, despu&#233s de un a&#241o marcado por el lanzamiento de treinta y un sat&#233lites de SpaceX, la venta de un mill&#243n de coches de Tesla y de convertirse en el hombre m&#225s rico de la tierra, Musk confes&#243 con arrepentimiento su impulso por provocar el drama. &#171Necesito cambiar mi forma de pensar para que deje de estar en modo crisis, como lo he estado en los &#250ltimos catorce a&#241os, o probablemente toda mi vida&#187, explic&#243.Fue un comentario melanc&#243lico, no un prop&#243sito de a&#241o nuevo. Cuando hizo la promesa, estaba comprando en secreto acciones de Twitter, el patio de recreo por excelencia. Con los a&#241os, cuando se encontraba en un momento dif&#237cil, se ve&#237a transportado de nuevo al acoso que sufri&#243 en el patio del colegio. Ahora ten&#237a la oportunidad de poseerlo.Durante dos a&#241os, Isaacson fue la sombra de Musk, asisti&#243 a sus reuniones, recorri&#243 juntos sus f&#225bricas, y pas&#243 horas entrevist&#225ndolo a &#233l, a su familia, amigos, compa&#241eros y adversarios. El resultado es un relato &#237ntimo y revelador, repleto de historias asombrosas, triunfos y perturbaciones, que aborda la pregunta: &#191son los demonios que mueven a Musk tambi&#233n lo que se necesita para impulsar la innovaci&#243n y el progreso?Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
