It's not about the coffee : leadership principles from a life at Starbucks / Howard Behar, with Janet Goldstein.


"Think like a person of action, and act like a person who thinks"

This book is filled with some wise words. Certainly in the "self-help" category - but there was a time in my life when i took to the genre, so it became a quick read for me. It's all about the people of this organization, as Behar effectively illustrates. I liked this quick read, especially as a reminder of how I like to look at organizations, since I will be teaching in a new one in the fall.
