How does Berkshire Hathaway's approach to investor relations differ from other companies?

Berkshire Hathaway's approach to investor relations is unique in that it goes above and beyond to keep its investors happy. This is evident in the company's annual shareholder meeting, which is often referred to as the 'Woodstock for Capitalists'. The company provides discounted shopping and exclusive celebratory events at these meetings, demonstrating a high level of commitment to its investors. This approach is different from many other companies, which may not go to such lengths to engage with and please their investors.

Question was asked on:

Apple's Steve Jobs, WeWork's Adam Neumann, Uber's Travis Kalanick. What do all these business leaders have in common? They're all CEOs who were fired from their own companies. It turns out that no one is invincible in front of investors and board members, and keeping these stakeholders happy can call for quite a bit of finessing. There's a reason why Berkshire Hathaway's shareholder meeting is referred to as the "Woodstock for Capitalists". To keep investors happy, the company goes as far as providing discounted shopping and exclusive celebratory events at these meetings. At the end of the day, even someone as revered as Warren Buffett works for his investors.
