Dear #Starbucks baristas: What do you think about this: https://lnkd.in/d8BcnX5 I read this BI article with interest as I'm very curious to see how Starbucks fares under the leadership of a new CEO. According to the article, there's a major disconnect between upper management and the in-store experience...namely that many employees feel stores are understaffed and lacking support. However, I've heard reports from other Starbucks employees that say the opposite. One claimed the piece was a "poorly researched article," and went on to say that in the meetings mentioned in the piece, Starbucks Corp. and local leadership "took responsibility for setting the wrong priorities, didn't blame baristas and that managers are bending over left and right to try and make their baristas feel appreciated and recognized." This person placed blame on "a few bad apples." Since I write frequently on Starbucks and follow the company closely, I'd love to hear from you all. Please reach out to me here on LinkedIn (publicly or privately), completely off the record unless you say otherwise. …see more

Some key lessons here for recruiters, courtesy of Brendan Browne : 2 of my favorites: 1. ...tech prospects would rather hear from the company’s own engineers than from its recruiters. We comb our networks to find first-degree connections with employees, and invite those employees to help make the initial contact. 2. Identify untapped talent pools, including at smaller or lesser-known companies. Not only do great people work in those places, but it's often easier to get their attention. …see more

What is the role of business leaders after yesterday's riots disrupting the transfer of political power in Washington? Cold hard cash speaks volumes: “Respect for the rule of law underlies our market economy. Business leaders need to stand up on these issues because in the end they are business issues, not just politics as usual. Just coming out with another public letter isn’t going to do much. Money is the key way.” - Thomas Glocer, former CEO Thompson Reuters , director at Merck and Morgan Stanley in WSJ (linked below). i.e. withholding political donations or investments in certain states. One of the country's largest lobbying groups, the National Association of Manufacturers even went so far as to encourage the use of the 25th Amendment. (NYTimes, linked below.) Most were quick to denounce the violence via statements like Sundar Pichai of Alphabet Inc. : "The lawlessness and violence occurring on Capitol Hill today is the antithesis of democracy and we strongly condemn it." Alphabet-owned YouTube, despite deleting a video from the president yesterday, still radicalizes many on the far-right with content full of conspiracy theories, misogyny, and racism. (NYTimes, linked below.) I don't have a blueprint for CEOs, but actions still matter more than words. …see more
