American Fortune Life

"James Donald will be the president of Starbucks North America,

Olin Smith to serve as executive vice president and chief financial officer of Starbucks

David Pace will serve as executive vice president. . .

The Audit and Compliance Committee will be composed of. . .

. . . . . . "

There was no hesitation or entanglement in Howard Schultz's tone, and he read the personnel arrangement in his hand with a calm expression from beginning to end. Even if he knew that most of the key departments here were controlled by Andy Smith's people, he could only Reluctantly accepted, at least he still left two of his confidantes.

Moreover, Andy has promised him that the people under him will fully support his work without hindering him.

"...The above personnel changes will take effect immediately!"

"Wow—"

"Wow..."

Following Howard Schultz's final words, the cold atmosphere in the originally stagnant conference room became agitated, and there were constant small discussions. Looking at the six ex-company executives who stood up at the same time, with angry expressions and dark faces, they cast sympathetic glances.

Andy's handsome face was full of smiles from beginning to end. Looking at the six old executives who suddenly stood up with angry and ashamed expressions, the smiles on their faces became brighter and brighter.

He doesn't care about the anger and hostility of such little people. According to his thinking, these idiot executives who lead Starbucks' blind expansion should all get out.

Andy is very clear that the most important thing for Starbucks is the middle and lower managers, especially the store managers of each store, who are the fundamental support for the long voyage of Starbucks.

As for the six idiots standing up in front of you, go to hell!

"OK, I thought I needed to roll names one by one. That would be great. I don't need to know who you are. I hope to receive resignation letters from several of you within today..."

The corners of Andy's mouth were slightly raised, and a faint smile appeared on his face. Looking at the six people who were glaring at him, the pen on his finger was slowly spinning.

As if thinking of something, he stopped the spinning pen, pointed to Davis who had just taken over as the head of the Starbucks legal department with the pen, and said, "Davis, remember to tell them the treatment they can enjoy and the agreement they need to abide by. We are A company with a human touch.

Kindness, compassion, humanism, love, these words may not often appear in business school textbooks. But that's precisely the cornerstone on which we build a long-term, enduring, prosperous business. "

Andy Smith's eloquent words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The six people who were still glaring at Andy were like deflated balls. Facing the unchangeable unemployment situation, They still have at least one indemnity and insurance.

If you really want to make trouble, facing this epic monster-like young man with a smile on his face, they will eventually be crushed into scum, and even life after unemployment will be difficult. They are all smart people, with the rationality of seeking good luck and avoiding evil prevailed.

"OK, I am very glad to have worked with you for such a long time. Starbucks will have a better future. This place is really not suitable for us..."

The former chief financial officer, Michael Casey, said with a helpless wry smile. His words caused the other five people to shake their heads in great disappointment.

"Choose wisely. I like smart people. I hope you can find jobs that are more suitable for you. I wish you success!"

Andy nodded in satisfaction. He was not afraid of these people causing trouble, but he was looking forward to it. He could be used as an example, but they are all human beings. How could they make such mindless mistakes? After all, after these executives resign, they will still enjoy Some perks.

The fault is not that they are incompetent, the fault is that they are not from Andy Smith. Although they may not know the ancient saying of the Chinese dynasty, one emperor and one courtier, but similar Western allusions are still very clear. They understand that the new boss does not need them , what is needed is that they make room for their own people, and it is superfluous to say anything more.

The six left, with calm expressions on their faces when they left. They were all decent people, not street gangsters, and they would say harsh words out of anger, which would only offend others more, and eventually make them lose face.

"Crack!"

Andy clapped his hands with a smile on his face, focused everyone's eyes and attention on himself, and said with a smile: "OK, now only my own people are left here. Here, I want to formalize myself as the chairman of the board." Howard Schultz, the first appointee of Starbucks Corporation, will serve as President and CEO of Starbucks Corporation and fully preside over the rebirth of Starbucks..."

Before he finished speaking, there was warm applause in the conference room, and Andy also stood up with a smile on his face and applauded Howard Schultz, who kept nodding to everyone, with a look of "I trust you very much and look after you." look.

Everyone here understands that Starbucks has turned a new page and officially entered the era of Andy Smith!

"Howard, the rest of the time is up to you." Andy smiled and said to Howard Schultz who sat down again.

"Thank you, Chairman." Howard, who is already in his fifties, treats Andy, a 24-year-old young man, with sufficient respect. Perhaps this seems a bit contrary to many people, but everyone present takes it for granted of.

Move the breath and raise the body.

Status and environment can change a person's temperament, and self-cultivation or self-cultivation can change a person's quality. It is said that people change with the change of status and treatment.

There is no doubt that Andy Smith's superior temperament and his own strong aura can make people ignore his age, especially the previous scene, which made everyone feel against his new boss from the bottom of their hearts. in awe.

"Starbucks will continue on its path of reform, and all reform measures will be unswervingly implemented!

Slow down U.S. store openings and close some underperforming stores. It is hoped that after the rectification, Starbucks’ American business will be back on track first, and gradually win the trust of investors. The stock price is not important, and the financial crisis is not terrible. As long as our performance improves, the stock price will naturally usher in an upward journey .

It's time to get our business back to the basics. When I walk into a Starbucks store and smell the aroma of coffee instead of food like sandwiches, I know that Starbucks is sick.

Focus on what you do best, provide the best products and services, and do everything possible to improve the customer experience. A new model of enterprise development that cannot be replicated has been created around products, brands and channels. . . "

"Sorry, I'm interrupting. Maybe you have heard that I have a coffee trading company that has signed an agreement with the Jamaican government to get 45% of the Blue Mountain coffee every year. I think Starbucks may be able to launch the real Blue Mountain coffee. New coffee!"

Andy said with a smile. Everyone, including Howard, was slightly startled, and then all of them showed joy. Starbucks has always been ridiculed by the industry or the outside world as not being a high-quality coffee. Maybe it can also be from now on. Response: I have Blue Mountain Coffee!

In the coffee world, Blue Mountain coffee means top coffee. But also because its name is too big and easy to use, naturally there are many counterfeit ones. But the real Blue Mountain coffee is very rare, and the foot basin people control the vast majority of the share. In the past, Starbucks wanted to use Blue Mountain coffee to enhance the brand, but because of the high price brought by its monopoly, it could not do anything.

Now the new boss told them that Starbucks can launch its own Blue Mountain coffee, which made the old Starbucks present really happy.

"Great! The chairman, Blue Mountain Coffee, will be an important helper to help us stabilize our image as a "coffee expert" and a powerful force to enhance the added value of the Starbucks brand!" I have always thought about constantly innovating core coffee products. Howard Schultz, who has a brand and extends brand value to low, medium and high markets, is undoubtedly the happiest.

"Hehe, I can say it straight now. In fact, a large part of the reason why I bought Starbucks was because I suddenly had 45% more Blue Mountain Coffee in my hand every year.

At that time, there were several acquisition options, but because Ivana was a loyal Starbucks customer, she highly recommended it to me, so I finally decided to acquire Starbucks. "Andy also smiled and deliberately told the background story of this gimmicky acquisition. He believed that it would soon spread and become a hot story.

hiss--

Everyone present had weird expressions on their faces, and they took a deep breath. Nima, this new boss of his family is really rich and self-willed. Mountain Coffee share, those shorty foot pot guys have been operating in Jamaica for decades!

Still suddenly? With a sudden size, everyone can imagine the efforts and struggles that his new boss has put in to snatch food from the cunning foot basin population.

As for what it means to have several acquisition options, ahem, I really don’t know whether to complain about the proprietress who likes Starbucks, or to thank her. . .

The old Starbucks present at this time kept complaining in their hearts, the boss was rich and willful, and poverty limited his imagination!
