About this listen

Running a successful small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) requires more than innovative ideas or strategic hustle—it demands an acute sense for people.

Your team’s mindset, adaptability, and energy are often more determinative than your business model or product.

One of the clearest signals of an employee’s potential—or risk—has recently been spotlighted by Donna Morris, Walmart’s EVP and Chief People Officer.

Her insight should resonate deeply with every business owner, regardless of scale.

“Nobody wants to hire a Debbie Downer,” Morris said.“They show up, bring the problem... and never the solution.”

This isn’t just a corporate HR lesson. It’s a foundational principle for high-functioning, innovation-ready teams.

As an SME owner, your leadership shapes the cultural backbone of your business. Embrace that responsibility. Lead with optimism.

Cultivate a problem-solving mindset. Recognize the red flags early—and never let them spread.
