In 2008, Howard

Schultz, the president and chairman of Starbucks, made the

unprecedented decision to return as the CEO eight years after he

stepped down from daily oversight of the company and became

chairman. Concerned that Starbucks had lost its way, Schultz was

determined to help it return to its core values and restore not

only its financial health, but also its soul. In Onward, he shares

the remarkable story of his return and the company's ongoing

transformation under his leadership, revealing how, during one of

the most tumultuous economic times in history, Starbucks again

achieved profitability and sustainability without sacrificing

humanity. Offering readers a snapshot of a moment in history that

left no company unscathed, the book zooms in to show, in riveting

detail, how one company struggled and recreated itself in the midst

of it all. The fast paced narrative is driven by day-to-day tension

as conflicts arise and lets readers into Schultz's psyche as he

comes to terms with his limitations and evolving leadership style.

Onward is a compelling, candid narrative documenting the maturing

of a brand as well as a businessman. Onward represents Schultz's

central leadership philosophy: It's not just about winning, but the

right way to win. Ultimately, he gives readers what he strives to

deliver every day- a sense of hope that, no matter how tough times

get, the future can be just as or more successful than the past,

whatever one defines success to be.' "Through the lens of his

personal leadership journey, with all of its dizzying ups and

agonizing downs, Howard Schultz has written, with aching honesty

and passion, the single most important book on leadership and

change for our time and for every generation of leaders. This book

is not just recommended reading, it's required." Warren Bennis,

Distinguished Professor of Business, University of Southern

California, and author of the recently published Still Surprised: A

Memoir of a Life in Leadership "[This] sequel to the founding of

Starbucks is grittier, more gripping, and dramatic, and [Schultz's]

voice is winning and authentic. This is a must-read for anyone

interested in leadership, management, or the quest to connect a

brand with the consumer." Publishers Weekly
