Joining Brooks Running Company in 2001 as CEO, Jim Weber turned the small company around with a focused mission of providing inspired products and inspiring experiences that motivated people to keep running. With a goal to create value and content for runners, Weber’s leadership style and success at Brooks caught the eye of none other than Warren Buffet, whose Berkshire Hathaway went on to acquire the company in 2012. Weber shares insights from his new book, Running with Purpose: How Brooks Outpaced Goliath Competitors to Lead the Pack, how he got creative during the pandemic when the running business was sidelined, and what you can learn about business when you report to Warren Buffet.
