The Warren Buffett CEO 14: Irvin Blumkin

“First of all, knowing the business, and knowing what you know and what you don’t know. Second is working at a circle of competence and understanding it. And third is knowing what makes the business work.”

Errors that Blumkin thinks that lead to business failure are: “Becoming too big too fast, losing focus on what you do best, divesting from your core competency, and being overleveraged.”
