Good morning everybody!
Welcome back to the Motivated Entrepreneurs podcast.
I'm your host, Dean Booty. Today is Saturday, the 11th of June.
Today we have a book review and it's called "Power Play: Tesla, Elon Musk, and the Bet of the Century" by Tim Higgins.
Tesla is the envy of the automotive world. Born at the start of the millennium, it was the first car company to be valued at $1 trillion. Its CEO, the mercurial, charismatic Elon Musk has become not just a celebrity but the richest man in the world.
But Tesla's success was far from guaranteed. Founded in the 2000s, the company was built on an audacious vision.
Musk and a small band of Silicon Valley engineers set out to make a car that was quicker, sexier, smoother, and cleaner than any gas-guzzler on the road.
Tesla would undergo a hellish fifteen years, beset by rivals—pressured by investors, hobbled by whistleblowers.
Musk often found himself in the public's crosshairs, threatening to bring down the company he had helped build.
