More quotes by Howard Schultz
I never took classic business classes in college, so I don't have the background that any of the people running large companies have.
Howard Schultz
If you put on a lousy production with white actors, it's lousy. There is a problem, or can be, at this stage of our social evolution, with mixing the casts. It may not be a question of race so much as class. You would rarely find a black man in a high executive position where he was swinging his weight around.
Howard Schultz
We have a big opportunity in China. We think the number of stores here can rival the number in North America.
Howard Schultz
Starbucks is committed to evolving and enhancing our customer experience with innovative and wholesome food offerings.
Howard Schultz
I think the currency of leadership is transparency. You've got to be truthful. I don't think you should be vulnerable every day, but there are moments where you've got to share your soul and conscience with people and show them who you are, and not be afraid of it.
Howard Schultz
Customers must recognize that you stand for something.
Howard Schultz

I think growth covers up mistakes.
Howard Schultz
We woke up one day, and all the sudden Starbucks was in the middle of this political crossfire between the people who want to bring a gun into Starbucks and the people who want to prevent it. It is a very difficult, fragile situation.
Howard Schultz
Starbucks is rekindling America's love affair with coffee, bringing romance and fresh flavor back to the brew.
Howard Schultz
Managing and navigating through a financial crisis is no fun at all.
Howard Schultz
Whatever you do, don't play it safe. Don't do things the way they've always been done. Don't try to fit the system. If you do what's expected of you, you'll never accomplish more than others expect.
Howard Schultz
If Vancouver did not succeed as Starbucks from '87 on, our entire international business, which is now thousands of stores and a significant amount of growth and profit, may not have existed.
Howard Schultz
Success is best when it is shared.
Howard Schultz
People around the world, they want the authentic Starbucks experience.
Howard Schultz
My parents really wanted me to get out of New York, be exposed to other people, other ways of life.
Howard Schultz
Remember: You'll be left with an empty feeling if you hit the finish line alone. When you run a race as a team, though, you'll discover that much of the reward comes from hitting the tape together. You want to be surrounded not just by cheering onlookers but by a crowd of winners, celebrating as one.
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
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
Everyone starts strong. Success comes to those with unwavering commitment to be at the end.
