Charismatic Leader Conversation with Richard Tedlow: Sam Walton

Professor Richard Tedlow returns to discuss an iconic, charismatic business leader.  This time, we discuss Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, how his background enabled him to build Walmart, the two keys to the company's success, and the many ways that Sam's charisma won the hearts and minds of his hundreds of thousands of associates. In the episode, we discuss Sam's final public appearance, shortly before his death from cancer, when he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President George H. W. Bush.  You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgqoRzj62dY --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chris-yeh-podcast/support
