Elon Musk's advice to CEOs: Spend less time on your finances, more time seeking criticism - Business Insider

, Musk said CEOs should "spend less time on finance, spend less time in conference rooms, less time on PowerPoint, and more time trying to make your product as amazing as possible.""Are CEOs from corporate America focused enough on product improvement? I think the answer is no," the billionaire said.

Even if product innovation doesn't come easily to business leaders, Musk said the skill is "absolutely learnable." He said the first step people should make is simply to try hard.CEOs should aim to be "absolute perfectionist about the product that you make or the service that is provided," Musk said, adding that they should also seek negative feedback from all corners — "from customers and from people who aren't customers.

Musk urged business leaders to take a step back from the situation and ask themselves: "'Is our product as awesome at it could be?' Probably not. What could you do to make it great?" The Tesla CEO said companies sometimes think that even though they don't like the product they're making, other people will. "That's not how it works," he said.The 49-year old said if executives are spending a long time doing presentations and reviewing spreadsheets, they're "barking up the wrong tree." They should be spending "more time on the factory floor or time with customers," he added.
