NPOV?[edit]

Though this article started out as a POV autobio puff piece, I'm willing to work with it (while simultaneously letting the Afd run its course). However, I have a real problem with "helped Starbucks reinvent coffee". What the heck does that mean? Can we find a more neutral way to state that? Katr67 (talk) 22:12, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably. What would you like? - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 08:59, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can it be changed to something like "rebranding" and perhaps we can find and cite some concrete figures showing how Starbucks' market share improved after Bedbury's involvement? Katr67 (talk) 10:52, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
