Asked To Fire Starbucks Leadership Team; Howard Schultz Reveals He Was Right

By 2008, Starbucks had grown massively but was facing a crisis.

Reportedly, Jobs invited Schultz to the Apple Campus and the two were taking a walk and discussing.

According to the report, during the walk, Schultz opened up on various challenges. Jobs listened and gave unexpected advice, “You go back to Seattle and you fire everyone on your leadership team.”

Starbucks’ headquarters is located in Seattle, Washington, USA.

Understandably, Schultz was hesitant. Firing everyone seemed extreme and potentially risky. Jobs, however, was adamant. He even predicted that most wouldn’t last a year anyway.

Jobs ‘screamed’ at Schultz saying, “Fire all those people, that’s what I would do.”
