Elon Musk and Business Ethics

A huge role model of mine, especially in the world of business, is Elon Musk, a businessman who has been extremely accomplished in a variety of industries. Founding and co-founding the companies PayPal, Tesla, Space X, Solar City, he has proven himself to be a very competent elon-musk-newentrepreneur. Despite becoming a wildly successful and wealthy entrepreneur, he has stayed true to his ambitions of environmental sustainability, hard work, and progress. Musk places a huge importance on a sustainable future with products and services encouraging renewable resources such as Tesla’s electric cars and solar charging stations, SolarCity, and the proposed HyperLoop project. He even welcomes competition to the Tesla electric car citing the importance of environmental sustainability over Tesla’s profit. Musk has also demonstrated a can-do and hardworking attitude; telling his employees to contact him anytime night or day and reportedly working more than 100 hour weeks. It is clear that he is incredibly committed to his companies and goals. As someone who strongly believes that businesses should have the best interests of their customers, employees, and planet at heart, it is clear why this ambitious, hardworking, progressive, and environmentally invested individual is my idea of a responsible businessman with good ethics.
