Description

His mother instilled in him the value of hard work and being the best at everything that he could be. As a child, he sold milk from the cow that his family owned. By age 7, he was selling newspapers. Naturally gregarious, he had an enthusiastic demeanor. After graduating from college, he worked at a JCPenney store where he had first-hand exposure to customer service. Shortly thereafter, he purchased a Ben Franklin retail store and that led him to create Walmart. This is the story of the legendary Sam Walton.

Sam Walton had one mission, to bring efficiency to whatever he did. He offered prices below his competitors, more varieties of products, and he revolutionized the retail shopping experience. He coined the term "associates" to refer to the cashiers and the retail staff and initiated a corporate profit-sharing scheme for them.

He was also a natural leader and even saved a boy's life by jumping into the river without thinking about his own safety. In 1992, then-president George Bush conferred upon him the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Come and learn about what made Sam Walton a unique leader and innovator.
