🎉 Celebrating one year with Walmart Data Ventures in none other than the legendary Sam M. Walton Auditorium in Bentonville—It’s like having your work anniversary in the Hall of Fame! 🏆
Reflecting on this year, here are three leadership nuggets from the man himself, Sam Walton, that have guided my journey:
1️⃣ Listen to Everyone: “Great ideas come from everywhere if you just listen and look for them.” Even the quietest voice can carry the biggest innovation!
2️⃣ Appreciate Associates: “Nothing else can quite substitute for a few well-chosen, well-timed, sincere words of praise.” Turns out, a simple “Thank you” can move mountains.
3️⃣ Swim Upstream: “Go the other way. Ignore the conventional wisdom.” If everybody else is doing it one way, there's a good chance you can find your niche by going in exactly the opposite direction.
Here’s to another year of growth, innovation, and, of course, more legendary workshops. #Leadership #Anniversary #SamWaltonWisdom
Congrats to all of you! 👏
