Tesla Dishes on Social!
At the last TieCon event in San Fran, some got to go on a Tesla tour! What a great set of learnings but of course, loving social, I took away the following on Tesla, featured in an article in Fast Company, Musk lists 4 lessons we can all benefit from:
1. Own your executive brand – If you don’t somebody else will
2. Humanize your brand
3. Don’t show up and then fall silent
4. Use Twitter as a leadership tool
TiEcon: 4K startups, Watson, BlueMix, IoT and more!
I really had a great time at TiEcon this past week. What an event! From my Internet of Things keynote to the Watson presence and BlueMix workshop, the largest entrepreneur conference in the world was packed with a phenomenal array of business and thought leaders from across the planet!
