More quotes by Howard Schultz
The lifeblood of job creation in America is small business, but they can't get access to credit.
Howard Schultz
I think Starbucks created a platform and, ultimately, a runway for many other companies to emulate. I suspect if we had not achieved what we have, there would have been many regional brands that would have succeeded. But I'm not sure there would have been a national brand of the scope of Starbucks.
Howard Schultz
Don't buy preground coffee.
Howard Schultz
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.
Howard Schultz
Victory is much more meaningful when it comes not just from one person, but from the joint achievements of many.
Howard Schultz
Starbucks is committed to evolving and enhancing our customer experience with innovative and wholesome food offerings.
Howard Schultz
The leaders in Washington have got to come together in a bipartisan way and do the right thing for the people who are being left behind. We cannot have an America that is only based on the wealthy.
Howard Schultz
To stay vigorous, a company needs to provide a stimulating and challenging environment for all these types: the dreamer, the entrepreneur, the professional manager, and the leader. If it doesn't, it risks becoming yet another mediocre corporation.
Howard Schultz
Starbucks is rekindling America's love affair with coffee, bringing romance and fresh flavor back to the brew.
Howard Schultz
While their service is ending, our responsibility is just beginning!
Howard Schultz
Even though people are under economic pressure, they still want to support those brands with values that are compatible with their own.
Howard Schultz
On balance, I am a supporter of the minimum wage going up. We've got to be very careful what we wish for because some employers - and there could be a lot of them - will be scared away from hiring new people or creating incremental hours for part-time people as a result of that wage going up.
Howard Schultz
We can't wait for Washington. Business leaders are going to have to galvanize their own constituencies and do everything they can to demonstrate confidence in the economy, and I think that can be contagious.
Howard Schultz
When we began Starbucks, what I wanted to try to do was to create a set of values, guiding principles, and culture.
Howard Schultz
At Starbucks 0 as in any business, in any life - there are so many hectic moments during the day when we are simply trying to do the job, trying to put out the fires, trying to solve any number of small problems, that we often lose sight of what it is we're really here to do.
Howard Schultz
Managing a business, small or large, today requires an extremely disciplined, thoughtful approach with regard to the pressure that people are under.
Howard Schultz
You cant build any kind of organization if youre not going to surround yourself with people who have experience and skill base beyond your own.
Howard Schultz
Our history is based on extending the brand to categories within the guardrails of Starbucks.
Howard Schultz
Success is empty if you arrive at the finish line alone.
Howard Schultz
My biggest concern is that America is drifting towards mediocrity and that people don't recognize - and by people I'm meaning Washington - don't recognize the sense of urgency and the fact that I don't think this is a crisis anymore. I think it's an emergency.
