How Starbucks Can Turn Around

Brian Niccol, the former CEO of Chipotle, began leading Starbucks earlier this week. Transforming the coffee shops back into third places will be a tough task.

(00:21) Jim Gillies and Ricky Mulvey discuss:

- The situation that Niccol is coming into at Starbucks.

- Why previous leadership at the coffee giant didn’t work out.

- A sporting goods retailer that may have reached bottom.

Then, (18:22) Robert “Bro” Brokamp kicks off a two-part interview with Dave Hatter, a cybersecurity consultant at Intrust IT, about the Social Security database hack and how to make your personal information more secure.
