Warren Buffett is a legend primarily for his investment philosophy. He isn’t concerned about the intricacies of the market, but instead focuses on the quality of the companies Berkshire Hathaway stands behind. Yet we know little about the leaders of the companies that Buffett handpicks.

In Behind the Berkshire Hathaway Curtain: Lessons from Warren Buffett’s Top Business Leaders, author Ronald W. Chan — founder and CEO of Chartwell Capital — offers a behind-the-scenes look into the careers of Berkshire Hathaway executives who have both directly and indirectly contributed to the conglomerate’s success.

Drawing on exclusive interviews from Berkshire leaders, Chan vividly describes how an exceptional group of managers has built a culture of achievement. With a keen eye for detail, he shows how their lessons can be applied for career success and personal fulfillment. Brimming with practical advice, the book will appeal to both executives and employees wanting to improve their leadership skills and work performance.

Covering the career and life decisions of David Sokol of MidAmerican Energy, Cathy Baron-Tamraz of Business Wire, Dennis Knautz of Acme Brick, Randy Watson of Justin Brands, Stan Lipsey of Buffalo News, and many more, the book offers a wide range of business insights, philosophies, and strategies directly from leaders at the top of their fields.

Ronald W. Chan founded Chartwell Capital Limited in 2007. He currently serves as Chief Investment Officer and co-portfolio manager of the Chartwell Value Fund.

Ronald strongly believes that he and his investment team have been sound stewards of their clients’ capital since Chartwell’s inception. To help provide proper business and investment management to the financial community, Ronald has traveled around the world to learn from different industry leaders. In 2010, he shared his experience by publishing Behind the Berkshire Hathaway Curtain: Lessons from Warren Buffett’s Top Business Leaders. In 2012, he interviewed fund managers worldwide and published The Value Investors: Lessons from the World’s Top Fund Managers. Both books have been translated into several languages, including Chinese, Japanese, Thai, and Portuguese.

Ronald graduated with Bachelor of Science degrees in Finance and Accounting from the Stern School of Business at New York University. In 2016, he was appointed by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited to serve as a member of the Listing Committee Panel.
