Switching Off

I have resigned my position with Tesla Motors due to some disagreements in strategy. I believe that in such a situation it’s best for a senior executive to part ways with the company so as to not get in the way.

I’ve stayed until now to help manage the transition, including recruiting a very strong successor to lead Sales, Marketing & Service going forward. I am sure he will do a great job.

Regardless of my personal decision, I think Tesla is an extraordinary company with extraordinary potential. There are a lot of great people there working hard to make a difference. I wish them all the best of luck and success in the future. They deserve it.

So what now?

I have no immediate plans but look forward to exploring various opportunities that I find out there. One thing I have been developing is a business idea in the media/technology space. I am very excited about it but we’ll see where that goes.

I also plan to start blogging occasionally again on my perspectives on the development of the alternative fuel vehicle industry (and cars in general) on this blog and my perspectives on media and marketing on my other blog.
