He was actually born in Kingfish, Oklahoma on March 29, 1918. He was raised in Missouri where he worked in his father's store while attending school. This was his first retailing experience and he really enjoyed it. After graduating from the University of Missouri in 1940, he began his own career as a retail merchant when he opened the first of several franchises of the Ben Franklin five-and-dime franchises in Arkansas.　　This would lead to bigger and better things and he soon opened his first Wal-Mart store in 1962 in Rogers, Arkansas. Wal-Mart specialized in name-brands at low prices and Sam Walton was surprised at the success. Soon a chain of Wal-Mart stores sprang up across rural America. Walton's management style was popular with employees and he founded some of the basic concepts of management that are still in use today. After taking the company public in 1970, Walton introduced his &profit sharing plan&. The profit sharing plan was a plan for Wal-Mart employees to improve their income dependent on the profitability of the store. Sam Walton believed that &individuals don't win, teams do&. Employees at Wal-Mart stores were offered stock options and store discounts. These benefits are commonplace today, but Walton was among the first to implement them. Walton believed that a happy employee meant happy customers and more sales.　　Walton believed that by giving employees a part of the company and making their success dependent on the company's success, they would care about the company.　　By the 1980s, Wal-Mart had sales of over one billion dollars and over three hundred stores across North America. Wal-Mart's unique decentralized distribution system, also Walton's idea, created the edge needed to further spur growth in the 1980s amidst growing complaints that the &superstore& was squelching smaller, traditional Mom and Pop stores. By 1991, Wal-Mart was the largest U.S. retailer with 1,700 stores. Walton remained active in managing the company, as president and CEO until 1988 and chairman until his death. He was awarded the Medal of Freedom shortly before his death.　　Walton died in 1992, being the world's second richest man, behind Bill Gates. He passed his company down to his three sons, daughter and wife. Wal-Mart Stores Incorporated (located in Bentonville, Arkansas) is also in charge of &Sams Club&. Wal-Mart stores now operate in Mexico, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, South Korea, China and Puerto Rico. Sam Walton's visions were indeed successful.　　上述就是有关SAT写作美国人物素材积累的介绍，希望可以给大家参考，更好地备考SAT写作。 查看全部解释 [.distri'bju:ʃən] 想一想再看 n. 分发，分配，散布，分布 [trə'diʃənəl] 想一想再看 adj. 传统的 [di'pendənt] 想一想再看 adj. 依靠的，依赖的，从属的 想一想再看 n. 奖章，勋章，纪念章vi. 获得奖章 想一想再看 n. 赢利能力；利益率；收益性 [.emplɔi'i:] 想一想再看 ['ru:rəl] 想一想再看 adj. 农村的 ['kɔmənpleis] 想一想再看 adj. 平凡的，陈腐的n. 常事，老生常谈 [stɔk] 想一想再看 n. 存货，储备; 树干; 血统; 股份; 家畜
