Join Danielle Patterson, CEO of Family Office Access, for a MasterClass conversation with Howard Behar, former President of Starbucks North America and founding President of Starbucks International.
A lifelong advocate of servant leadership, Howard helped guide Starbucks’ growth from just 28 stores to more than 15,000 locations across five continents, while keeping people, purpose, and principles at the center of decision-making.
In this on-demand MasterClass, Howard shares how values-based leadership can extend beyond corporate environments and serve as a practical blueprint for generational stewardship. The conversation is especially relevant for founders, Family Office principals, and next-generation leaders navigating growth, governance, and legacy.
What You’ll Learn • How to turn values into an operating system that endures leadership transitions • Lessons from Starbucks’ global expansion, including what scaled well and what didn’t • Why trust, humility, and front-line empowerment matter at every stage of growth • How to balance speed with principled governance • Insights for Family Offices on next-gen readiness, crisis leadership, and purpose-driven philanthropy
Who This Is For Family Office principals, next-generation family members, advisors, and executives who want to strengthen culture, governance, and long-term decision-making through service-driven leadership.
This session includes live audience Q&A and thoughtful dialogue with one of the most respected leadership voices of our time.
