Growing a busines is tough, exceptionally tough. Its is one thing to control and manage a business when your operation is small and close with a limited number of outlets but it is completely different when you expand and feel further and further removed from the day-to-day operations. Some businesses are easier to grow than others; online and financial services businesses often have highly scalable business models whereas location-based businesses or consulting services are lot more difficult to expand and grow.

Yet, Howard Schultz, the then CEO of Starbucks, revolutionaised the coffee industry by laying the foundation for a 13 000-store global coffee shop empire.

By the end of the fiscal year 2008, Starbucks engaged more than 160,000 employees to handles approximately 50 million weekly transactions in the nearly 17,000 stores that the firm had opened in49 countries.
