Unofficial Transcript: Warren Buffett Speaks in Favor of Proposal
CNBC’s ”Squawk Alley”, Tuesday September 8, 2015
•
Warren Buffett:
Well if I could vote, I would vote as management suggests, which is to have Brian take on the
CEO and Chairman job.
•
CNBC Host Becky Quick:
Are you bothered by the idea of just how it was done?  How the Board did this and
ignored what was a binding proxy vote from 2009?
•
Buffett:
I
guess
they’re
putting
it
back
to
the
shareholders
now,
so
I’m
not
bothered
–
I
do
not
think
that’s
a
big deal.  I think that what Brian does, Brian has done, he took a company that was just a terrible mess, I
mean it’s been virtually destroyed, the public hated it, the government hated it.  They had all kinds of lawsuits
coming in and employee morale was terrible.  And he’s resuscitated it and I think he has done a first class job. 
And if he is the Chairman as well as the CEO, God bless him.
•
Quick: It was a company in crisis and as somebody who has been in business for a long time you’ve been
through a crisis or two yourself.  And I think you’ve even come up with a motto that you tell people to stick
with: get it right, get it fast, get it over, but get it right first.  And that has been your way.
•
Buffett: Yeah, you got to get it right, then get it fast, get it out and get it over.  But you got to get it right first. 
And that’s what he’s worked at doing.
