Mike Duke spent years in senior leadership for Walmart, ultimately serving as CEO from 2009-2013. At the moment he took over the global economy was in the midst of significant upheaval, and rapid change was affecting the retail industry. In the early years, he pioneered a push for more online sales, bringing Walmart into a new era of growth and profitability. But more than the practical aspects of his leadership, Mike has always been marked by two principal characteristics, his humility and his love for his employees.

What is the key to influence? How do leaders have the opportunity to leverage authority? Can that influence help out in the work environment? Can it help extend even into personal lives and values? As a leader, how important is it to have mentors in your life? What is the most important thing in a mentor-mentee relationship? How important is it to have influence/buy-in as a leader as opposed to positional authority? How can a young leader begin building their influence among their peers?

Doug McMillon is set to replace Mike Duke as the CEO of Walmart on February 1, 2014. McMillon has been with Walmart for over 25 years, and Raphael Moreau, Retailing Analyst at Euromonitor does not expect McMillon to make any drastic changes following the switch. The company faces numerous challenges in the upcoming months, including stagnant growth in the US market due to consumers leaving for dollar stores and neighborhood markets. Walmart also faces challenges in its foreign markets - its Asda chain in the UK has slowed in sales, and corruption scandals have surfaced in its Mexico-based stores. McMillon has to spur growth both domestically and foreign, and reassure investors that any cases of corruption will not be repeated.
