Some quotes from Starbucks alumni Howard Behar

It’s Not About the Coffee

I was invited to listen to Howard Behar, former President of Starbucks speak this morning. He said:

People are the ultimate driver of success in any organization. They have to grow themselves first as human beings then as employees. It’s the responsibility of any leader to develop their people. It’s too bad that so many businesses don’t see that.
