内容説明

Though fictionalized, this book is based on a true story of Monorail Espresso, a legend in its own time in Seattle. This coffee company prospered by intentionally staying small in the cut-throat coffee capital of the country. People are yearning to return to honest ways of doing business: before corporate dominance, inflated executive salaries, accounting trickery and outright greed became commonplace. This is the story of a pushcart David slaying the corporate Goliaths on a daily basis and it should appeal to all of those in business who are looking for a way forward by reminding us what is core to good business and a good life: honouring customers, trusting employees, passion around a product and turning an honest profit.
