STUDY CASE PART 4

1. Walmart prefer to recruit new store managers from its large pool of hourly associates because by doing so Walmart could take advantages from hourly associates which have more experiences working with Walmart than new workers. Moreover, they might have been trained for a while and Walmart could save a lot of money to train a new worker from basic. Those associates maybe just require far less training because of their experiences working with Walmart. Besides, it’s a way to increase employees’ productivity by rewarding their determination and loyalty with Walmart by promoting to manager with higher wage.

                                                         


2. Walmart employee diversity benefits the organization itself by maximizes productivity, creativity and loyalty among employees while giving the needs of Walmart’s customers. By using this business strategy, Walmart’s employees would have different perspective that can help provide a holistic view of the market and what customer’s needs. It is important to have to understand their customer’s needs and know how to serve them. This could prevent miscommunication based on differences and creating a better working relationship and working environment. Besides, it could increase employee commitment and motivation by creating an environment where all employees feel included. Lastly, diversity in a company allows for flexibility within an organization which ensuring Walmart to stay competitive in the global economy with other competitors.
