2005 Hurricane Season—Lessons Learned
• Communication: Know all out-of-state partner contacts in advance.
Make all partners aware of multiple communication channels.
• Clear Pay Expectations: Define how partners will be paid and for
how long. Be consistent throughout the region and organization.
• Direct Deposit: Increase participation in direct deposit so that
partners are able to be paid during any incident
• Distribution Expectations: Plan standing orders with vendors to be
filled after the storm.
• Community Outreach: Donate product to key community groups
prior to storm impact.
• Community Support Communication: Within 24 hours marketing to
provide plan for local response to community and create ways for all
internal partners everywhere to be able to help.

Pandemic Planning Calls for a Paradigm Shift
• Industries hit the hardest will include
the health sector, service industries,
transportation, travel, and businesses
with time-sensitive supply chains.
(CDC: Impact Of Pandemic Influenza report, 3/05)
• There is a real possibility of a disproportionate response due to public
fear as a result of media coverage.
• A pandemic would not be a typical
disaster.
– Widespread impact
– Not a physical disaster
– Duration
– Notice
– Primary effect is on staffing
CDC, 2005
Starbucks Pandemic Plan Goals
• Ensure partners and their
families security and
safety.
• Remain the Third Place
for customers and the

• Preserve the continuity of

Determining Our Pandemic Response
• Monitor the influenza; it will be critical to
staying ahead of the impacts.
• Create a series of increasingly restrictive
responses to the spread of the pandemic.
• Use the WHO phases, and then base
actions on whether a country is “affected”
or “non-affected.”
Applying Lessons Learned to the Future
