Siemens CEO Roland Busch streamlines work with minimal email and meetings

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Siemens CEO Roland Busch employs a minimalist approach to manage his workload, aiming to keep his email inbox below 100 messages by responding quickly with brief replies like "OK" or "No." He also eschews recurring one-on-one meetings with his direct reports, preferring they approach him as needed, a strategy he attributes to his background in physics for problem-solving. This efficiency-focused leadership style is shared by other CEOs, such as NVIDIA's Jensen Huang, who also avoids regular one-on-one meetings. AI
