This is true of every CEO and corporate leader. They coordinate profound talent around them. That alone is a talent, and a very valuable one.

Right. Being an effective CEO is not about having original ideas. It's about selecting the best ideas, and creating a team to realize them.

There are a zillion ideas out there. The idea (!) is to be able to pick the right ones.
For example:
1. never give up
2. don't beat a dead horse
Which idea is correct?
I once watched the YouTube video of musk talking about battery prices and buying raw materials on the London exchange, and I thought, wow this guy is so insightful, no wonder his companies do well. It’s not till later that I found out that everything he says is someone else’s idea that he takes credit for.
