Dear partners, My cup is full with gratitude and optimism on this morning of my first Starbucks Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
“As I step away, I leave you all as the stewards, in service of all of our partners. They are the heart and soul of our company – the living embodiment of human connection,” wrote Howard Schultz to the senior leadership team on the eve of Laxman Narasimhan’s first day as Starbucks new chief executive officer.
