I had the pleasure of hearing Prof. Finkle speak in Omaha earlier this year, and he was kind enough to join me for today’s discussion. It was a real joy to have him on the show and learn a lot more about our shared hero, Warren Buffett, from a different perspective.
Todd A. Finkle, Ph.D. is the Pigott Professor of Entrepreneurship at Gonzaga University. He is also an investor, entrepreneur, speaker, and consultant. His research interests include entrepreneurship, famous entrepreneurs, and the business methods and career of Warren Buffett.
His most recent book, published by Columbia University Press, is Warren Buffett: Investor and Entrepreneur. Todd won an award (Bronze Medal) for the best business biography for the Axiom Business Books Awards.
It traces the entrepreneurial paths that shaped Buffett’s career and how he developed it into a global conglomerate through the imaginative deployment of financial instruments and creative deal making. By viewing Buffett as an entrepreneur, Finkle’s book offers readers a fresh take on one of the world’s best-known financial titans. Dr. Finkle is a native of Omaha, having graduated from Omaha Central High School. He earned his undergraduate and doctoral degrees from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and an MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
