Within the Brookfield’s Restaurant organization there is a problem of having a high turnover rate, which is dependent on employee’s motivation as well as how much they feel they are involved in the company culture. Since the restaurant is a fast paced food service industry that requires employees to be capable of handling the pressure of dealing with many customers’ demands while also providing a high level of service to each guest which can be hard for many, making them less motivated to work. Also, the company culture is important by making the employees feel welcomed in the company and to help support them while on the job, so as to the employees want to stay on the job and not wanting to leave. We will provide an analysis showing employee’s work motivations and involvement in the company culture to determine if these factors are the cause of the high turnover rate.

The strategy of WFM, co founder Mackey, is to continue offering healthier options for its customers. The movement into Canada and the UK in the last few years, lays the footprint for additional global expansion. Mackey intends to increase WFM to 1000 stores. The question is whether it will happen through acquisitions or new store locations. The answer based on their history is a combination of both. The store in Canada opened in 2002. Since brand recognition is not as strong, the store struggled somewhat in the beginning; however, the expectation is that it will grow to one billion in the next ten years (Patton, 2013). The stores in UK, which are in the greater London area, have received mixed receptions, and some stores are selling well while other locations are not. However, Mackey is not deterred and believes that longevity will produce the desired results.

Preliminary Starbucks – one of the fastest growing companies in the US and in the world - has built its position on the market by connecting with its customers, and creating a “third place” beside home and work, where people can relax and enjoy themselves. It was the motto of Starbucks’ owner Howard Schultz and, mostly thanks to his philosophy, the company has become the biggest coffee drink retailer in the world. However, within the new customer satisfaction report, there are shown some concerns, that the company has lost the connection with customers and it must be taken some steps to help Starbucks to go back on the right path regarding customer satisfaction. I will briefly summarize and examine issues facing Starbucks. Starting from there, I will pick the most important issue and study it from different positions.
