Walmart just Fired it's Leadership. Here's what it means for you.

Walmart just fired everyone. 

Here’s what it says about your future. 

Ok, not everyone.

But there was a huge leadership shakeup. 

Doug McMillon, the most important CEO since Sam Walton, is out.

Consider…

Doug McMillon is out as Walmart Global CEO.

John Furner is in. 

John Furner is out as Walmart US CEO.

David Guggina is in. 

BONUS: Walmart established NEW Global Role.

Seth Dallaire in as Chief Growth Officer. 

What does all of this say about the future?

Let’s take a look at their backgrounds:

- Furner oversaw Walmart’s “digitization” (e-com, BOPIS, etc.)

- Guggina was most recently Chief of E-Com.

- Dallaire once led Walmart Connect and Walmart Data. 

This is a sign post for what Walmart just made strategic.

Walmart is focusing on:

• Marketplace

• Retail Media

• Delivery

• Data

The shelf is now 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 of the screen.

Sometimes that screen will be in your home.

Sometimes that screen will be in the store.

Walmart is rebuilding around that screen.

👇

“How much do I focus on ecom if 80% of sales are in-store?”

We are entering an age where it is all e-com.

The whole store is going digital.

Walmart understands this.

Heck, they’re driving it.

If you want control…

It comes through a screen more every day.

What a legend.

This ain’t your daddy‘s Walmart anymore.
