Top Takeaways: Advising Elon Musk, Spiegel and Whitman with Arman Sedeghi
- I did start 6 companies at once
- I built a system and a structure to support growth
- I’m constantly in the structure creation mode
- Worry about the cause, the effect will follow
- Important versus urgent
- Spend time doing the important that are NOT YET urgent
- No one makes a superhero movie about the planner and builder who creates a system to avoid disaster- though they are more important
- The more you react- the more there will be things to react to
- Are we relying (detrimentally) on technology to save the day in our business?
- I’m obsessed with KPIs- if you have the right KPIs you can see what happened, what is happening and what will happen next without actually being there
- When KPIs are tracked every day- everything changes
- KPIs should flow from the bottom up
- The struggle with KPIs isn’t in what to track, but how to be accountable to them
- KPIs need to change from a “should” do to a “must” do
- 3-5 KPIs is the sweet spot
- The most important thing in any company is to track KPIs
