IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...
Will he leave the farm?
He is not big on business suits or board rooms. His passion is farming. But then you can’t deny his blood relation with the man himself. Who knows he might be next?
Howard Graham Buffett
Warren Buffett’s elder son
Blood might be thicker than water but in this case it has already proved to be thicker than Dollars! Being son of the world’s richest man hasn’t influenced this easy going personality from his passion of farming. Even the slightest of the possibility of becoming the next CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, doesn’t keep Howard Graham Buffett away from driving his tractor across his 850 acre corn and soybean farm in central Illinois. Named after Warren’s father Howard, a US Congressman and Warren’s teacher and mentor Benjamin Graham, this 53-year-old son of Buffett is the only son to serve on Berkshire Hathaway’s board of directors. His father has even tapped him to be Berkshire’s next chairman when the time comes. So what makes him say so?
Having a diverse curriculum vitae is what makes Howard the most likely contender to be the next spearhead of Berkshire Hathaway. Having served on corporate boards of Coca-Cola, ConAgra’s Foods, and Archer Daniels Midland, Howard has shown enough business talent to make Dad proud. “It’s just being honest with people. I mean that sounds pretty simple, but I think what I watched him do is be very straightforward and very upfront and give honest answers and treat people fairly,” is how Howard explains his father’s philosophy.
