Brian Niccol has Team Starbucks inspired and aligned on the equation that unlocks Starbucks. Excited to see it unfold for partners, customers and stakeholders over the coming months.

Just spent an amazing day with Brian Niccol and Starbucks store managers from around the country. Over the years, there have been critical moments when leaders have galvanized the company—everyone focused and facing in the same direction. Today was one of those moments. The energy in the room reminded me, once again, of the power of Starbucks, and the impact 14,000 store leaders will have on their communities. As I leave Vegas, I’m betting on Green. There are 14,000 reasons to do so! #tobeapartner #LE25
I remember how energizing those gatherings were during my Starbucks days - what a special experience that many companies don’t invest in or prioritize. Mobilizing your own team is essential to living out your brand and values in the way you treat and attract your customers. You have to live it inside the walls first.
