-Starbucks approaches coherence by keeping there company consistent. If every store was not consistent there would be a failure within the company. Everything from the customer experience to the store aesthetic all has to be consistent.

By creating a culture and vibe of  Italian cofee bars they strive to better there products and services. They took this approach to build a connection with there customers.
