“Elon Musk, the spaceman with an electric supercar”

This real life version of Tony Stark has created and is running two skyrocketing companies. At Tesla he is trying to make available an entire range of electric cars to the consumer market. SpaceX is a literal moon shot attempt at creating a habitat for humans in space.

If the space and cars weren’t enough to tackle, Musk is simultaneously trying to revolutionize the energy industry as well. He is the biggest investor and chairman of the board of Solar City, one of the largest suppliers of solar energy technology and a key piece of his agenda is to change the way world consumes energy and produces it.

“For me it was never about money, but solving problems for the future of humanity.”

“Elon is Wernher von Braun, Howard Hughes, Henry Ford, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and every other badass, all rolled into one.”

-Dolly Singh, Former Head of Talent Acquisition at SpaceX.

This man aims to revolutionize the way we commute, make our energy consumption more sustainable, and do away with the concept of humans as earthbound beings.

I’ve been following Elon’s adventures for a while and have been asking myself a question

Elon Musk’s enterprises seem to be advancing ridiculously fast while others are largely inertial if not stagnant.

Why?

I believe Elon’s success comes down to three key ingredients:

  1. Taking Risks
  2. Product/Knowledge Control
  3. Genuine Leadership

At the heart of what Elon Musk does so well is an in-depth understanding of core electrical engineering, its prospects and its application in solving problems we face today. If you want to tread a similar path, our team here at TapChief has put together a list of Electrical & Mechanical Engineering pros who can guide you to bring about a revolutionary change of your own.

  1. Gunvarun Singh : Designer at Texas Instruments

2.Shikhar Sharma : Embedded Team Lead (VDS) at GreyOrange Pte Ltd

3. Dr. Akhilesh Mishra : Senior Scientist at DRDO

4. Pradeep Shrivastav : Advisor Aerospace and Defence at QuEST Global

5. Anshul Sharma : Field Engineer at Schlumberger

6.Rashid Hussain : Application Engineer at MAFNA Air Technologies Inc.

7. Tamilinpan Sony : Design Engineer — Full vehicle at Mercedes-Benz India

So I’ll end this with an obligatory quote from Apple’s 1997 Think Different campaign.

“While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
