Howard Schultz
You must find something that you deeply love and are passionate about and are willing to sacrifice a lot to achieve.
Howard Schultz
Believe in your dreams and dream big. And then after youve done that, dream bigger.

One of the fundamental aspects of leadership, I realized more and more, is the ability to instill confidence in others when you yourself are feeling insecure
Howard Schultz
I think what we're lacking in society, not only in the U.S. but also around the world, is to find heroes once again and to celebrate these kind of people.
Howard Schultz
Sometimes you have to create the thing you want to be part of.
Howard Schultz
Everyone starts strong. Success comes to those with unwavering commitment to be at the end.
Howard Schultz
Starbucks represents something beyond a cup of coffee.
Howard Schultz
We think of Starbucks not as a coffee company but a media company.
Howard Schultz
Overnight the digital age had changed the course of history for our company. Everything that we thought was in our control no longer was. But within a year we had invested in social media and digital experts. Now Starbucks is the number one brand on Facebook.
Howard Schultz
Even though people are under economic pressure, they still want to support those brands with values that are compatible with their own.
