Summary: Howard Schultz Shows How Purpose and Passion Drive Success
Comment: While researching my second book, Motivate Like a CEO, Communicate Your Strategic Vision and Inspire People to Act, I happened to pick up this book, and it helped me understand something very important. Effective leaders are those who have a powerful purpose -- and communicate with passion. That's Howard Schultz. All of us work for a paycheck but long for a purpose. Leaders with a purpose inspire everyone around them. Read this book and learn how to build a great company with purpose and passion. You'll be inspired by Schultz's story and look at every obstacle as an opportunity.

Summary: A very inspirational book.
Comment: "Pour Your Heart Into It" is a very inspirational book. It is not about coffee. It is a about leaderships, passion, persistence, commitment and to love everything we do and make it better and better up to a level that nobody else would ever thought to be.
I have bought some copies for my team members, and reccomend this book to my colleagues.

Summary: Inside Story About The Rise Of The Starbucks Coffee Chain
Comment: I really enjoyed reading this interesting book, written by Howard Schultz, who led Starbucks from a sleepy Pacific Northwest chain into a worldwide phenomenon.
Schultz's book is about more than just a cup of coffee; he writes about having a dream and staying with it, making personal life choices that seem nutty to everyone else - such as quitting a secure job to go work for Starbucks.
I highly recommend this book for business majors and anyone who is thinking about starting their own small business.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Fascinating Story- Great Advice
Comment: I highly recommend this book to all new entrepreneurs and those interested in learning how successful companies are formed. I also know there are alot of people out there who hate Starbucks simply because it exists and succeeded- I challenge you to read this book. The business was created from the ground up by passion and perseverence, and it deserved to succeed, and I hope it continues to succeed for a very long time.
