I haven't seen much evidence he's good at delegating. Such as how he remains in control of his own Twitter despite the SEC warnings and penalties.

He doesn't need to spend much time with his companies to damage them.

Don’t you think it would have been very visible if he were bad at delegating? His companies tend to produce results - not always on time, but that’s to be expected in greenfield projects right?

Not only do they produce results, they tend to save humanity while doing so.

Couple of questions spring to mind:

1. Can you define "damage"?

"Elon Musk poised to collect $23bn bonus as Tesla beats targets" [0]

"Tesla reported record revenue and profits for the first quarter of 2022 [..]"[1]

2. Would you say the current management of Twitter are doing a good job on behalf of their shareholders?

"Twitter misses ad revenue and user growth estimates; revenue forecast light"[2]

You think Elon Musk created two of the most valuable companies in the world without being good at delegating?

I think pretty highly of him, but not that highly.

Which of his companies are damaged?
