Wal-Mart loses $7.5 million discrimination suit -- Who Shall Be Responsible??

It is unbelievable that from a Pharmacy Associate become a trash picking man. & the man is transfer at his will??

I have experience & withness many discriminations in my Corporate careers. & for a gaint corporation like Walmart with over 1Millions employees worldwide. That certainly is causig a big concern. I also witness that all those "An Equal Opportunity Corporation".. all these seem to be the joke of Corporate America.

As Sun Tze said managing a small Arm Force is exactly the same as running the big Arm Force.

Also, Sun Tze said, if the soldiers have been ill treated, then the General in comand shall be resposible.

So the General in command shall be responsible for what have been happening.

You see the cse of HP Ex-CEO Carly Fiorina incident of firing 3 VP's for the failing result is another solid example of the so call "Point Down" finger management.

All the Guru of Management Excellent do they have MBA & Doctoriate??

Look at Confusuis!!

look at Lao Tze??

Look at Sun Tze

Even look at Christ...

Abraham...

Gandi.. ..

Mao

...they are all long dead!!!

The days of Best Business School produce the Best & Brightest Executives are over!!

Where is the Integrity, Virtue, Moral Values of Leadership in Management??

Executives Headhunter's should re-asses the methodologies in their selections & recommendation to their client's for the candidate for the best fit!!





Wal-Mart loses $7.5 million discrimination suit
NEW YORK (Reuters) — A New York jury awarded a former Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) employee who suffers from cerebral palsy $7.5 million in a discrimination lawsuit, the worker's lawyer said Thursday.

The former worker, Patrick Brady, claimed that Wal-Mart transferred him from his job as pharmacy associate to a position picking up garbage and collecting trash in the parking lot after only one day of work, said lawyer Douglas H. Widgor. The case was heard in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

Wal-Mart said that the store did not discriminate against Brady and that he was transferred at his request.

"Although the jury has reached a decision, we do not expect the court to enter a final judgment until we have the opportunity to establish how the jury was wrong," the company said in a statement. "We are optimistic that the award will be substantially reduced or eliminated altogether."

Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart is in the midst of a national advertising campaign to burnish an image tarnished by claims of worker discrimination. The company is facing complaints throughout the world as it seeks to expand.

Public resistance to Wal-Mart's expansion has been particularly strong in California, where the retailer's campaign to improve its image began in 2004. The company's push for its first store in New York City was reported to have hit a snag this week after a real estate developer scrapped plans to include a Wal-Mart store in a Queens shopping center.
