Together, we're building a new Walmart. We're going to make shopping with us faster, easier and more enjoyable. We'll do more than just save customers money and you, our associates, will make the difference.

Be a great teammate - you learn how to lead, you learn how to influence by the way you interact with your peers, treat them well, help them, help them do a better job.

You can compare the retail business to basketball. You have to have a plan, you have to hustle, you have to rely on each other, and there's a scoreboard on the wall.

The thing that's been consistent is that this is a team sport and nothing happens through the work of just an individual. We all do this together and it doesn't matter whether you're going to do a startup or you're at a big company, that's going to be the case. And what sport taught me was the importance of that and how to treat a teammate, and how to work together.

When I joined Walmart, I just had a team mindset, but I look back on it now, and I realize some of those early jobs I had, I was trying to help other people and rally the team. It ended up people started looking at me as a leader.

When you look at what was happening with e-commerce and how big that was going to become, there's the big wave of India, there's the big wave of e-commerce, and then there's the question of, "Is this the brand to invest in?". We developed this confidence in that team, and so far we've been proven to be right about that.
