“There’s something deeply satisfying about investing in yourself and seeing tangible results, both in my day-to-day work and in my long-term career,” shared Mustafa Hashmi, Quality Assurance Team Lead. “I’ve seen firsthand how the skills and certifications gained through LBU can directly lead to career advancement opportunities.” One month after completing his Supply Chain Management certificate through Walmart Canada’s Live Better U program, Mustafa was promoted to Quality Assurance Team Lead at DC6072 in Surrey, British Columbia! LBU offers a path for all associates, whether they’re looking to accelerate their growth, get in-demand credentials, or receive a degree or licensing for a specialized role. In July, Mustafa started working on his next certificate in Excel through Live Better U. One of the reasons LBU sticks out to Mustafa is its focus on real world applications. “The skills and insights gained can often be applied immediately to your work, leading to quick wins that could boost your confidence and performance,” said Mustafa. Congratulations to Mustafa on his promotion and all of our LBU students who’ve prioritized their upskilling!

“Having the opportunity to fight for Canadians to get them the absolute best value in product gives me a strong sense of purpose and makes me feel proud to work at Walmart. And as a mom, I know how important quality and durability are to parents – especially because of how hard kids are on their clothes.” For more than 15 years, Marlise Wilson, Walmart’s Senior Merchandising Director, Baby and Kids, has been part of Walmart’s apparel team, starting in women’s clothing and accessories and later moving to kids and baby. Today, she leads a team of merchants who work incredibly hard to ensure parents are clothing their kids in quality products that last. Read more about Marlise’s career in merchandising at Walmart and find out her top picks for back-to-school apparel – all available at our every day low prices. https://lnkd.in/g5G7HfyG Marlise Wilson Molly Dobson Sam Wankowski Stephanie Fusco #BackToSchool #WalmartCanada #Walmart

“Sometimes, people don’t realize what they’re capable of until someone believes in them and shows them the opportunities that exist,” said Verna Shillingford, Assistant General Manager of one of our Mississauga distribution centres. Twenty-nine years ago, Verna joined Walmart Canada as a means to an end. As a single mom, she needed to support her child while attending school full-time. The more time she spent with the company, she started to see things differently— she saw a future. Now, Verna inspires and nurtures the potential in others, making it her mission to help associates reach their full potential.

When Angie Gelinas moved to the Yukon to become Store Manager of Walmart Canada’s Whitehorse store two years ago, it was love at first sight. And while the breathtaking landscapes initially drew Angie in, it was the community that convinced her to stay. Because of its location and the remoteness of the surrounding regions, the Whitehorse store continues to play an important role in the lives of residents since it opened its doors more than 20 years ago, providing customers from near and far with their everyday essentials at affordable prices. “I love Whitehorse. It's really the best place on earth. I probably should have come here like 10 years ago.” Read more about Angie’s story and what makes the Whitehorse Walmart so special here: https://lnkd.in/dqcXwdJb Angie Gélinas(Woeckener) Julie Chahal, CPA,CMA, MBA Derreck Cuschieri Conal Slobodin Felicia Fefer #Walmart #WalmartCanada #Whitehorse
