Pickpick

This is a must-read for anyone who likes to learn about highs and lows of a business from a CRO‘s pov. The book walks us through the difficult phase of Starbucks as a business and the steps Howard took to overcome the challenging economy and market. There‘s a lot to learn from this book about taking risks, believing in yourself, confidence, dealing with failure, focusing on the bigger picture, patience & success. Highly recommend this one!

Thanks @Eggs for the #WondrousWednesday tag!🤗

1️⃣ The many things I learned from HB, the author of this book & one of my all-time leaders/mentors would take too much space but 3 are 1) Lead with your values & don‘t work for a company if your values don‘t match. 2) Put people over profits—a true leader serves people. 3) Build relationships & “trust banks” first.

2️⃣ Talent Development & Training

3️⃣ Independently wealthy bookstore owner! 😉

MemoirsForMe Yay on all 3…especially #3! 🙌🏻📚🙌🏻 8mo
Eggs Well done 👍🏼 #3 sounds great! 8mo
Kitta Oh yes a bookstore would be great! 8mo
DebinHawaii @UwannaPublishme @Eggs @Kitta I added the independently wealthy so I don‘t have to struggle & can enjoy it & all the books! 😉😆 8mo
Eggs @DebinHawaii Of course! 8mo

Christmas cups are out ! Life is good when you have enough points to get Christmas blend!☕️

marleed It always gives me a little thrill when I drive thru Starbucks and my order comes in this years‘ holiday cup. …It‘s also my reminder of a new year when my order is once again filled with the standard white at some point in Jan when they run out of holiday cups! 12mo
Leftcoastzen @marleed 😁I tend to walk in , so first thing you notice is all the signs are red ! Holiday cups are fun , though I brought my own in today. 12mo
marleed Haha. I love Starbucks stores at Christmas. I‘ve particularly anticipated the cups since the silly 2015 controversial solid red cup. In support that year I purchased the ceramic solid red holiday cup and do a toast with it every year for whatever way it is people chose to celebrate (or not) the season! 12mo

Day 20 - potion/magic - tell me it‘s not magic. Also, I drink magical leaves with nectar of the bees. Tell me either experience isn‘t magical. changes your mood/mind in just a few wonderful sips. #drinkme

#IdiomInsight Day 2: We #HitTheSack right on top of this iconic Dubai Starbucks (Middle East version) with our hotel strategically located on top of the coffeeshop over the weekend. Our daughter headed back to Seattle last Friday so we figured it is a nice touch for her going away night to be in Starbucks Dubai as she flew off to Seattle, the birthplace of Starbucks.

RaeLovesToRead Wow! I want to visit this Starbucks so bad!!! 1y
Larkken So cool. Do they have any Dubai-specific mugs? I have some from Athens that I love 💗 1y

DebinHawaii I love this photo! Many moons ago (okay over 20 years) 😉 when I was in SBUX International, my team trained the groups who opened Kuwait ( the first market in the Middle East & North Africa) & then Dubai. I did not get to visit before I left SBUX & moved to Hawaii but have lots of memories of the complexities of opening the brand in MENA. 1y
marleed Oh that‘s very cool! 1y
Eggs Extraordinary 👏🏻🤗👍🏼 1y

Starting the morning off with the deep and heavy stuff. This book really forces you to ponder life. And what better way to ponder life than with coffee? ☕️ 🤔

I know I have been MIA lately but Hurricane Ida did a number on our area. Life for me has been changed in ways I never imagined but I am slowly getting back to me. Why does she have a photo of muffins???? Well since #starbucks was pretty much closed for September and most of October I had to make my own #pumpkin bread and I found a recipe that was on point. #litsylove #whenlifethrowsyoulemons

Bookwormjillk I‘m glad you‘re getting back to normal a little bit. Glad to “see” you again. 3y
