If you were the CEO of Wal-mart, what would you do?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for March 31, 2007:

 

I have heard a lot of negative hype about Walmart and do not really know where it is stemming from.  Most of what I hear is from unhappy folks who do not want to have a Walmart in their cities. 


So, if I were the new CEO at Walmart, I would find out what is being said out there.  I would try to clean up Walmart's act and if there were something that can be done about it, I would start there.  I would ensure that researches are done to see how opening new stores would affect communities and smaller businesses in the area.  Perhaps, widen the product line and offer to work together with the neighboring businesses to better serve the communities and make profit in the process.  I would continue to ensure that quality products are sold and made available to consumers at affordable prices.  Next, I would see about the employees to make sure that their grievances are heard and that they are well paid and happy.  Then, I would make sure that the lower management goes about doing what they are supposed to be doing.  I would then make sure that internal and quality controls are running smoothly.  Keep an eye that the profits keep going up, then, I would try to give back to the communities by offering scholarships and the like.
