The Lifeblood Of Job Creation In America

We Think Of Starbucks Not As A Coffee Company But A Media Company.

Starbucks Has Stores In America In Many, Many Communities That Are Governed By Many, Many Different Municipalities. Starbucks Cannot Dictate To A Municipality In Cincinnati Or Kansas City Or Sacramento How Or Why Or When There Should Be A Recycling Program.

I Think People Will Walk Into The Starbucks Store And Overnight Recognize The Significant Difference Between What Starbucks Represents Day-in And Day-out And All The Other Coffee Companies That Have Been Serving Coffee In India For So Many Years.

I Don't Have Any Secret Sauce And I'm No Smarter Than Anyone Else. I Will Say I Have Surrounded Myself With Unbelievable Talent That Has Made My Job Easier.

Managing And Navigating Through A Financial Crisis Is No Fun At All.
