Publisher's Summary
In Pour Your Heart Into It, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz shares the passion, values, and inspiration that drive this fascinating company. Placing as much importance on employees as on profits, paying as much attention to creativity as to growth, motivated by enduring principles including "Don't be threatened by people smarter than you", and "Everything matters", Starbucks is living proof that a company can lead with its heart, nurture its soul, and still make money.

Enjoyed this read
Short and sweet. The book presents some critical concepts in running an organization, thinking about brand, building teams and evolving in role as the founder. While I do recommend the book, I prefer entrepreneur stories who are written by an author / researcher rather than the entrepreneur themselves. This is mostly because of the sense of bias the autobiographical version of these stories take rather than presenting a deep dive on both success and failure that was overcome. Good book overall.

High Powered Brew
Where there's passion poured into vision and done on purpose, you have a wonderful result. Howard Schultz brought more passion for coffee to the table than the founders. The Starbucks story proves great ideas don't come easy: they only come with persistence and courage. It also proves you can do the right thing and win. Highly recommended!

Time for Part 2 of the Starbucks story
This book only goes up to late '90's, but is a great record of Starbucks to that point. It'd be interesting to hear Mr. Schultz's follow up on the next 20 years.

Good story
I enjoyed the story and it’s message. However the narrator was hard to get used too. I wish the author would have narrated the book.

Great Story
I really enjoyed hearing the story of Starbucks, but I've become spoiled in hearing the authors read their own books. You really get to hear the intended excitement and emotions that way. The guy that read this was a little boring.

Easy read
Glance through the early stage of Starbucks but does not go too detail. Easy story but recommend follow up with other Starbucks books to get in depth understanding.

Not the full version
It should be more explicit that this version is not the complete one, very disappointing
