Wow, I was just scratching my head why my project management team isn’t performing. This is the right direction to start the change in my thinking. Thank you 🙏🏻

For 10+ years I’ve been leading teams in academia & the private sector. When I started I was clueless, but I slowly picked up a few lessons that today I use to think about team leadership & management. Here is a list of three lessons I wish I had when I started🧵 /1

Elon Musk fired 80% of Twitter (6500 people) and everyone thought that Twitter was doomed.

He was right. Everyone was wrong.

It’s the management masterclass of the decade and every entrepreneur must understand why it worked 🧵:

Lessons in reorg

[Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy]

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is fundamentally hostile to nuclear energy in the U.S. and the worst irony of all is that it’s also worse for safety. Together, this is strictly bad for American greatness. Prior to the NRC’s inception, the average approval time for a new nuclear plant was 3-4 years. Today, it’s 25-40 years. By comparison, Japan is still able to build new plants in 3-4 years & it’s 5-8 years for France. Even worse, the cumbersome NRC regulatory burden ensures that the operating nuclear plants in the U.S. don’t use the newer Gen III or Gen IV models, which are safer and more efficient than the older Gen I and Gen II designs that the U.S. uses. By contrast, China is the first country to operate a Gen IV reactor while we’re still stuck in Gen II.

Answer: Shut down the NRC. I’ll get the job done.

The NRC has a staff of ~2,949. 47% of the staff in administrative staff and redundant roles should be laid off immediately.

The remaining 1,554 specialists will be reassigned to serve within other agencies that have overlapping missions for greater efficiency and better focus.

Reassignments:

-Department of Energy (1,176 specialists)
Office of Nuclear Energy: licensing, oversight, mission support, and training.

-The EPA (317 specialists)
Nuclear materials and waste safety.

-FEMA (43 specialists)
Event response

-DHS (18 specialists)
Homeland security.

This shutdown and reassignment of specialized personnel will return 62% of the NRC’s budget to taxpayers and unshackle nuclear to drive American energy.

What if I told you there is a billionaire who controls your medical records.

She started Epic Systems in a Wisconsin basement in 1979.

And now she's the richest woman you've never heard of.

10 matter-of-fact messages from the Midwest billionaire, Judy Faulkner:

1. “If you see a snake, kill it; don’t form a committee on snakes.”

2. “What you put up with is what you stand for.”

3. "One of the things that made Epic strong when I wrote the original code was that it never occurred to me to do anything other than put the patient at the center. I developed a clinical system at a time when the health care world had pretty much only billing and lab systems available."

4. “I have never had any personal desire to live lavishly.  I’m probably among the billionaires who are indifferent to the lifestyle that great wealth can buy.  There is no apartment in New York or Paris.  There is no ranch in Aspen.  There are no private or even corporate jets.”

5. “I was a programmer, I thought it was fun.  I’m not sure in the beginning I felt that I’m here to save lives.  Why do you come to work?  For the paycheck?  For something interesting to do?  For customers?  For the competition?  For the mission?  If I had to circle one reason, it’s for my customers.”

6. “Programming is a mix of language, math and art, and I remain a software developer at heart.  And I have no plans to retire or even slow down.”

7. “[On living in Wisconsin] The first thing you’ve got to like is the people.  It’s the Midwest work ethic, the Midwest nice.  I was just in an area with gated communities.  I do like the Midwest where there is much more a feeling of… we trust each other.”

8. “I think it’s very interesting, the difference between ‘thank you’ and ‘congratulations.’  To me, ‘thank you’ makes it a personal thing, like you did it for me, and I don’t like to take that from a person unless it was something they did for me.  So, I prefer to congratulate them on a job well done if that was something they did themselves.”

9. “Many years ago I asked my young children what two things they needed from their parents.  They said ‘food and money.’  I told them ‘roots and wings.’  My goal in pledging 99% of my assets to philanthropy is to help others with roots – food, warmth, shelter, health care, education – so they too can have wings.”

10. “I took the route of higher education and took a risk starting a business.  My success didn’t happen overnight, but over time with steady improvement.”

Remember: It's never too late to turn your dream idea into your dream business.

That's a wrap. Hope you enjoyed these matter-of-fact messages from Judy. If you did:

1. Follow me @arjunmahadevan for more like this (and for more on how to turn your dream idea into your dream US business with @doolaHQ)

2. RT this, if you can, to share these messages with a friend

9. Create A Mood Log

When you feel creative -- log the causes.

When you feel uncreative -- log the causes.

Once per month, review it and redesign your environment based on this log.

3. Balaji's Transformer

If you have a written idea -- try to draw it

If you have a visual idea -- try to write it

If you have a numerical idea -- try to explain it out loud

The process of transforming the idea from one language to another produces a new perspective
