So there I was, slowly sipping and enjoying my first cup of coffee of the day and reading the newspaper when my eyes fell on an article about a memo Starbucks Corp. Chairman, Howard Schultz, wrote to company executives. In the memo, Schultz questioned whether the companies continuing quest for rapid growth (now 13,000+ stores with a well publicized global goal of 40,000) and efficiencies has diluted the “Starbucks Experience.” Among the efficiencies cited include automatic espresso machines which speed beverage delivery compared to the personal ritual of baristas pulling shots by hand and using fresh roasted bagged coffee instead of hand-grinding beans in front of customers, substantially lessening the aroma “experience.” Read more
