Description

Ashley Harris is an experienced Operations Leader used to working in fast-growing and high-pressure companies. He spent 5 years working at Tesla, where he rose to a management role for European Operations and Logistics. He's currently Director of Operations for Clearview, a pioneering company in the Machine Vision space, where he works with the Managing Director and Senior Leadership Team to help deliver strategic goals (serving as "Integrator", using the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS)).

In this episode of the First-time Founders Podcast, Ash compares and contrasts the style of Elon Musk, one of the greatest entrepreneurial Visionaries of our time, with a good small business leader, running on EOS. We talk about aligning teams around a Vision; recruiting and managing People; use of Data; understanding Issues at their root; if, when and where Processes are necessary; and quarterly operating rhythms. We explore what it takes as an entrepreneurial leader to really 'put a dent in the universe'!
