Leadership Secrets of Liu Bang 
The Emperor of China’s Han Dynasty with a Surprising Connection with Steven Spielberg

Liu Bang, also known as Gaozu, began from humble peasant roots and served as a police officer under the Qin dynasty. He rose through the ranks, first receiving control of western China, and eventually becoming the ruler of China as the founder and first emperor of the Han dynasty (206 BCE220 CE). The histories of kings and rulers often provide valuable lessons about the universal principles that can be applied to today’s management, entrepreneurship, and all types of large undertakings. As this spiritual interview has shown, Liu Bang’s strengths and achievements are marked by a strong global element. Everyone who aspires to lead a large organization can learn from his ability to win people’s hearts. You may be surprised to discover that this long-ago emperor of China is living today in the United States as one of the world’s most famous film directors, Steven Spielberg.
