“You can learn from everybody.” ~Sam Walton

“When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.” ~Sun Tzu
What is the mistake in the quote below? This is a great quote for this blog. You have supply chain experience one way or another. Think about your day and all things that apply to supply chain and logistics. When loading the dishwasher do you do maximum capacity or do you spread out the dishes to ensure perfectly clean dishes? If you have kids think about the logistics it takes to get the kids to where they need to be. Learn from everywhere and learn from everyone.
This is one of my favorite quotes because we can learn from everyone. Sometimes you learn the good, sometimes you learn the bad. Think about the worse boss you have ever had. Do you try not to be like that person? “You can learn from everybody.” ~Sam Walton
