The "Idiot Index": How Elon Musk Became Obsessed with Procurement Costs
Manage episode 509712982 series 3599920
What is the "Idiot Index," and why did it make Elon Musk an ultra-obsessed procurement buyer? In this episode, Tom Finn and Alan Veeck break down Musk’s radical approach to cost, revealing how to use his "Should Cost Model" to expose massive markups from your suppliers. Learn how to apply Musk's "10% Rule" to over-delete unnecessary steps in your processes and instantly simplify complex, cost-inflating regulations. They also cover the secret to building a Musk-level team: hiring for attitude because skills can always be taught, but attitude requires a "brain transplant". Plus, discover how his "Go to the Problem, Stay There" rule and the power of "Showmanship" can transform your procurement team into a strategic, cost-crushing force.
