I hope they can learn a little from me as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Related Posts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/berkshire-hathaway-management-structure\/\">If You Love the Management, Set Them Free<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/co-owners-founders-management-teams-make-world-go-around\/\">My Co-Owners Are the Best Part of Investing<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/great-business-partnerships-key-success\/\">Great Business Partners give you keys to success<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"postmeta_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"postmeta classifications small\"><span class=\"post_categories\">Categories:<a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/category\/business-growth-and-business-opportunities\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Business Growth &amp; Opportunities<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/category\/execution\/business-management\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Business Management<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/category\/competitive-advantage-and-differentiation\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Competitive Advantage &amp; Differentiation<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/category\/hr-culture-is-strategic\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Culture Is Strategic<\/a><\/span><br \/><span class=\"post_tags\">Tags:<a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/business-growth-opportunities\/\" rel=\"tag\">Business Growth &amp; Opportunities<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/competitive-advantage\/\" rel=\"tag\">Competitive Advantage<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/culture\/\" rel=\"tag\">Culture<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/equity-investor\/\" rel=\"tag\">Equity Investor<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/greybull-stewardship\/\" rel=\"tag\">Greybull Stewardship<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/tag\/teamwork\/\" rel=\"tag\">Teamwork<\/a><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love the companies Greybull Stewardship has invested with and I love working with the all-star management teams running\u00a0those businesses. \u00a0As we turn the corner into 2016, those are my overwhelming thoughts and feelings. \u00a0Greybull All-Star Management Teams Here are some of the reasons why:&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/masonmyers.com\/cheers-to-greybull-ceos\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,190,5,4],"tags":[79,38,41,85,13,83],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.0 -
