What are some of our interns most excited to learn about this summer? Dive in below ↓

As I complete my 10th week of my Global People Internship at Walmart, I am grateful to have had abundant opportunities and incredible experiences. One of my most impactful experiences was a tour of Walmart Store 5260 that I embarked on with my fellow Global People Interns. This tour not only broadened my understanding of my project but also offered several key takeaways: 1. The importance of inclusion Did you know Walmart offers a sensory friendly environment during the hours of 8 AM to 10 AM in all Walmart U.S. and Puerto Rico store locations? This is to provide an optimal experience for all customers, regardless of their needs. This is just one of the many displays of “service to the customer” I witnessed while touring Store 5260. 2. The power of associate ownership Walmart is actively involved in giving back to communities, and I got to discover how Store 5260 encourages their associates to take ownership of fundraising initiatives. Store 5260 decided to take on the challenge of raising money for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in many creative ways, such as selling snacks and t-shirts next to the breakroom. It was such a unique way to learn about how associates can play a direct role in supporting their community. 3. The value of growth opportunities The leadership board stood out to me on the tour. The board has associates' faces on the wall to display the store hierarchy, helping to put names to faces, and showing associates what their next growth opportunity at Walmart might be. What was most impactful about the board was when Store Manager, Carlie Dodge highlighted that almost every person in a leadership role on that board had been recently promoted, and that the leadership team reflects the diverse community they serve. This is a great example of how associates can see leadership from people who look like them and recognize potential roles they can grow into, all while encouraging associates to “strive for excellence.” Of course, a special shout-out to Matt Meyers, Ph.D. for putting this internship experience together, and Cody Katzer for giving insight into the customer and associate experience. Witnessing these initiatives firsthand has truly reinforced my admiration for Walmart’s commitment to inclusivity and community support.

From the looks of this video, it seems to me that this really big #corporation is providing experience to their #Interns AND at WORTHYfutures I teach them more effective ways to put together a presentation, minus the ping-pong. Here is a tip for all of you when presenting, set out your pitch like a story arc, accentuating the negative and positive stages for maximum drama. ·      Problem: what needs fixing right now (negative) ·      Opportunity: also available to us now (positive) ·      Practical Steps: if we do this, it won’t be easy (negative) ·      Promise: but if we get it right, it will be great (positive)  Mateo Hernandez Jimmy Sevilla Jordan Fon Sing Akari Zhang Brandon De Fusco

One of the milestones i have achieved in my HR Career! It's impressive that i have been able to oversee the entire process, from the recruitment stage to ensuring the interns are on the right learning path at The Address Investments & The MarQ Communities Managing an internship program requires a lot of organization, communication, and mentorship, and the ability to handle all aspects of it is a testament to my expertise in the field. I want to thank my mentor, manager and friend Passant Magdy for supporting and believeing in me in each step in my career. #theaddressinvestments #themarqcommunities #humanresources #organizationaldevelopment #talentmanagement

So many opportunities to grow in a caring and innovative culture.

The first week of summer vacation for my kids is here. We're gearing up for summer camps and activities. This time of year takes me back to my college internship, where I ran sports camps for the local YMCA. We started and ended each day by reviewing the core values: Caring Respect Honesty Responsibility. We would talk about these as we opened the day, and at the end of the day, we would ask if anyone saw any of the campers displaying these behaviors. Those who did were rewarded with a little prize and a round of applause. If organizations reward and recognize core values, they will continue to permeate through the organization. Think about what behaviors are being rewarded and emulated and which ones you want to be magnified.

Make no mistake - how you treat your employees is a brand play. Let me explain. I was already aware of Once Upon a Farm, but this honest praise for a dedicated intern planted a seed in my mind (as an outsider completely unaffiliated with the company) that this is a brand with genuine integrity behind it. They don't seem to be doing it for likes, or sales, or web traffic. There are not likely KPIs set against it, no data reports will be pulled to measure it's effectiveness, but that doesn't mean it's not a smart marketing move. It effects how we see and feel about them. Which effects purchasing intent. Not everything is measured in CTRs and ROAS, folks.
