Sam Walton, founder of Walmart, passed away in 1992, but the company he created is still one of the world's largest employers today.
In many ways, the impact of his leadership is still felt today.
Sam's leadership lessons can guide us today in 2021 as much as they did many many decades ago.
Here are three things Sam did that you as a leader should do as well:
1. Ask questions. Sam was considered a master questionnaire. He was constantly talking to people at all levels of the company. He showed that he valued other people's perspectives, opinions, and ideas by truly trying to ask thoughtful questions.
2. Surround yourself with people who are smarter than you. A leader's job isn't to be the smartest person in the room. A leader's job is to assemble a team and to create an organization where people are smarter than the leader is.
3. Hold on to what's working and change what isn’t. It's easy to get wrapped up in new things. But don't get rid of a successful practice or method simply to chase something shiny and new.
