SynopsisWarren Buffett sagte einmal, dass Anleger nur einen Blick auf seine Betriebsgesellschaften werfen müssten, um seinen Investmentansatz zu verstehen. Autor Robert Miles, selbst langjähriger Aktionär von Berkshire Hathaway, verfügt über umfangreiches Insiderwissen und verschafft dem Leser mit diesem Buch den gewünschten Einblick. Auch Berkshire Führungskräfte kommen zu Wort und nehmen Stellung zu Berkshires Unternehmenskultur und Managementprinzipien. "The Warren Buffett CEO" ist das erste Buch, das jene Management-Geheimnise enthüllt, die Berkshire Hathaway international zu einer der ersten Investmentadressen gemacht haben. Robert Miles dokumentiert hier ausführlich die Entwicklung von Berkshires Managmentstrategien in den letzten 20 Jahren und gibt fundierte Prognosen ab, wie die Unternehmensführung in den kommenden Jahren wahrscheinlich aussehen wird.

Much has been written about Warren Buffett and his investment philosophy; little has been made public about the inside management of Berkshire Hathaway.

Drawing on his personal experiences as well as those of Berkshire's chief executives, officers, and directors interviewed for this book, Berkshire insider Robert P. Miles provides a unique look at the Berkshire Hathaway culture and its management principles., " Everyone knows Warren is the greatest investor of our time. . . .This book for the first time captures his genius as a manager." --Jack Welch "Robert Miles clearly understands the company well." --Warren Buffett Much has been written about Warren Buffett and the philosophy that made him the most successful investor in history, yet nothing-until now-has been written about his role as manager of the diverse companies under Berkshire Hathaways ownership.
