BERKSHIRE BEYOND BUFFETT
The Enduring Value of Values
Berkshire Hathaway, the $300+ billion conglomerate that Warren Buffett built, is among the world's largest and most famous corporations. Yet, for all its power and celebrity, few people understand Berkshire, and many assume it cannot survive without Buffett. This book challenges that assumption.
In a comprehensive portrait of the corporate culture that unites Berkshire's subsidiaries, Lawrence Cunningham unearths the traits that assure the conglomerate's perpetual prosperity. Riveting stories of each subsidiary's origins, triumphs, and journey to Berkshire reveal how managers generate economic value from intangibles like thrift, integrity, entrepreneurship, autonomy, and a sense of permanence.
BERKSHIRE BEYOND BUFFETT explores not only what will happen to Berkshire after Buffett, but presents all of Berkshire behind Buffett, the inspiring managerial luminaries, innovative entrepreneurs, and devotees of deep values that define this esteemed organization.
Lawrence Cunningham teaches business law at George Washington University. An apolitical and accessible sort, Cunningham's writings appear in trade magazines like Directors & Boards, university journals like the Columbia Law Review, blogs, and mainstream media such as the New York Times and the Financial Times.
