From Milan to Seattle, our full interview with then-Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz is now available. During a long-form interview, Schultz reflects on a series of life-changing events, including haunting memories of his war-stricken father, appreciation for Bill Gates Sr.’s intimidation tactic and regret during his time as the Seattle SuperSonics owner. Plus, Schultz candidly reveals vitriol he faced from politicians while vetting a presidential campaign and while testifying before Congress earlier this year.
