Howard Schulz, CEO of Starbucks, joins Groupon's Board of Directors
- longarm 16y agoIt's more impressive when companies add people to their board who add a perspective other than the entrenched (dare I say evil) mindset of their competition. An example: Chipotle adding Bill Niman, an advocate against factory farming, fast food and cheap meat. A good move for Groupon would be to add someone who speaks for small businesses--the main Groupon customers--instead of a major corporation.
