Publisher reveals title for Hillary Clinton’s memoir

[Beacool]

76. She never worked for Wal-Mart.

She was the only woman who sat on the board of directors in the mid 80s. She was asked by Sam Walton because the company was under pressure to have a woman in its board. The board only met 4 times a year. While there she pushed for environmental issues and for more inclusion of women in its management ranks, although it is true that she didn't push them to unionize. Look at the pic I posted, zero diversity. How much actual influence do you think she had as a young woman surrounded by men? She was put there as the token woman and she advocated for the things that were dearest to her, and that she thought she could get the company on board.



Fellow board members and company executives, who have not spoken publicly about her role at Wal-Mart, say Mrs. Clinton used her position to champion personal causes, like the need for more women in management and a comprehensive environmental program, despite being Wal-Mart’s only female director, the youngest and arguably the least experienced in business. On other topics, like Wal-Mart’s vehement anti-unionism, for example, she was largely silent, they said.
