The Tesla founder argued that only three titles – president, secretary, and treasurer – “mean anything for corporations,” adding that these titles technically can be held by the same person, and that “all these other titles are basically made up.”
“And all these other titles are just basically made up,” he added. “So CEO is a made up title, CFO is a made up title, general counsel is a made up title. They don’t mean anything.”
Back in October 2018, Musk also
tweeted that the “legally required officers of a corporation are president, treasurer & secretary,” though he made no remarks about any made up titles back then.
