Schultz explains that his relationship with Starbucks began in 1982 when he joined the company as a marketing professional. At the time Starbucks was small and local to Seattle, Washington. As part of a work assignment, Schultz traveled to Italy, where he was inspired by the pleasurable cafe experiences he had there to start his own coffeehouse company. In 1987, his company acquired Starbucks and chose to keep the Starbucks name, at which point Schultz became Starbucks\u2019 first CEO.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the beginning, Schultz\u2019s vision for the company was to balance making profits with uplifting humanity. Schultz stepped down to become Starbucks\u2019 chairman of the board and chief global strategist in 2000, but his successor, Orin Smith, carried this vision forward. Schultz explains that over the years, Starbucks provided <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/unique-value-understanding-michael-porter\/\">unique value<\/a> for customers, employees, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/bargaining-power-of-suppliers-understanding-michael-porter\/\">suppliers<\/a>, stockholders, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/global-society\/\">global society<\/a> and the environment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Starbucks provided value to customers<\/strong> by offering a distinct coffeehouse experience that fused artisanal coffee, meaningful employee-customer relationships (achieved by having employees face customers as they made their drinks), and a comfortable \u201cthird place\u201d setting (a space outside of home and work where people could gather).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Starbucks provided value to employees<\/strong> by endowing them with a healthy, rewarding work environment and uncommonly good benefits (for example, even part-time employees were entitled to health insurance and stock options).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Starbucks provided value to suppliers<\/strong> by treating them ethically (for example, ensuring coffee farmers were paid more fairly by participating in the Fairtrade certification system).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Starbucks provided value to stockholders<\/strong> by growing the business and expanding globally (Starbucks\u2019 value nearly tripled between 2000 and 2005).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Starbucks provided value to global society and the environment<\/strong> by contributing to humanitarian causes and environmental education campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-starbucks-fall-from-grace\"><strong>Starbucks\u2019 Fall From Grace<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Schultz commends Smith\u2019s leadership, he also says that Smith\u2019s focus on expansion by opening new stores domestically and abroad was bad for business. Many of the new locations didn\u2019t operate sustainably, and the cost of opening them overshadowed the profits they brought in. However, opening new stores helped Starbucks <em>appear <\/em>to be growing, so the next CEO, Jim Donald, continued that strategy. Donald also led Starbucks\u2019 breakthrough into the entertainment industry by developing partnerships with creators and promoting or co-producing their work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schultz says he began having doubts about Donald\u2019s leadership because he started hearing more customer complaints. Starbucks was also suffering financially\u2014growth slowed to a snail\u2019s pace and stocks dropped tremendously\u2014a decline that was worsened by the 2007 economic downturn. Schultz didn\u2019t blame Donald because he felt all of Starbucks\u2019 leaders shared responsibility for its performance, but he generally disagreed with the direction the company was headed. In his view, <strong>Starbucks\u2019 leaders were failing the company by prioritizing rapid growth over in-store performance<\/strong>, which diminished the distinct coffeehouse experience that made Starbucks valuable to its customers and damaged in-store employee morale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What happened to Starbucks in 2007?
