Meet a genuine American folk hero cut from the homespun cloth of America’s heartland- Sam Walton, who parlayed a single dime store in a hardscrabble cotton town into the retail giant Wal-Mart.
In Sam Walton- Made in America, he tells his extraordinary story in his own inimitable words. Genuinely modest but always sure of his ambitions and achievements, he shares a revealing perspective on the elements of his success along with his philosophy of life and practical business advice, including-
. Competition- I’ve always had a passion to compete. Our story proves that spirited competition is good for business
. Partnership- Individuals don’t win; teams do. Wal-Mart is just a spectacular example of what happens when people find a way to work together.
. Money- Success has always had its price and I learned that lesson the hard way.
. Celebrity- I’m not sure I ever really figured out this celebrity business. Why do I drive a pickup truck? What am I supposed to haul my dog around in, a Rolls-Royce?
. Family- The kids received youreveryday heartland upbringing based on the same old bedrock values- a belief in the importance of hard work, honestly, neighborliness, and thrift.
