Starbucks hasa well established product line, customer
experience and supply chain.
But the biggest reason for its successhasprobably been its
activities outside
Starbucks decided to invest in its people and the communities
they work with. When a company puts people first, and focuses
on making positive changesfor the communities they work
with and serve,consumers notice.
Becauseof the positive image of the company, they seeless
turnover and customersbecome advocates of the company.
Thoughtful CSRprograms aren’t just PRstunts or a showfor
investors, and companies like Starbucks, that are really
succeeding, are proof that these programs can be hugely
impactful if implemented well.
