During his many years as a senior executive at Starbucks, Howard Behar helped establish the Starbucks culture, which stresses people over profits. He coached hundreds of leaders at every level and helped the company grow into a world-renowned brand. Now he reveals the ten principles that guided his leadership-and not one of them is about coffee. Behar shows that if you think of your staff as people (not labor costs) they will achieve amazing results. He discusses the importance of building trust, telling hard truths, thinking independently, and more. And he shares inside stories of key turning points for Starbucks, as it fought to hang on to its culture while growing exponentially.

It’s my go-to book; clear, simple, common-sense, sage-like advice proffered by a true servant leader:-)
All leaders/ managers should have a copy or two ( one to give away to friends) in their library or on their bedside table.
When Howard Schultz runs for President…Howard Behar should be his Vice-President or if we can find a UK family link Prime Minister:-)
If I could wish for a perfect book to read, I’d like to see a collaboration between Howard Behar and Sir Ken Robinson, imagine their combined talents solving the current Education crisis that we face in the UK/USA:-)

I will recommend this book to every leader I meet. Full of leadership wisdom and packed with real-life stories, this book will help every leader improve.
I especially enjoyed how the author conveyed the importance of a culture determined by a focus on people. Make your people happy, they will make your customers happy, they will make your business succeed. Focus on the people.

Great book; even if you’re not a manager or working, it shares insights on how to deal with everyone in a respectful manner. I’ve read it twice already and will definitely read it again

I absolutely loved reading about Howard’s perspective around a people-first business. As the CEO and leader of an amazing team, this book has truly impacted me in ways that will profoundly shape how I lead moving forward. A wonderful read for any leader who truly values mission and others.
