    Default Genghis Khan Model for Funds

    Bloomberg.com Exclusive

    Park says his model for international expansion is Genghis Khan, the Mongol warlord who conquered a wide swath of Asia and parts of Europe in the 13th century, and who is the subject of the film ``Mongol.'' What Mirae and the Mongol marauder have in common, Park says, is that both believe in promoting talented individuals, regardless of their ethnic background, and in decentralizing authority.

    Talented Individuals? Talented at what? Rape, pillaging and murder?

    Talented at killing.

    Can't really say your model is a warlord when you're a businessman though

    shame on you for being extremely ignorant to history. Mongols have been very far from barbaric rapists and murderers as soon as it came to running a govt.
    they have been very sophisticated in govt policies, had assimilated extremely well, have been very tolerant and invited the foreign experts/professionals from all countries to work for them.

    you cant possibly build a huge and wealthy empire just by killing everything that moves.

    No man, the Mongols literally raped and pillaged the world. They brought advanced societies crashing down from the Muslims to the Chinese, and even the early Russia! Their actions held back these civilisations for hundreds of years.

    Lol, Khan was the Asian Hitler. He killed the same number of people in his campaigns as Hitler did in the 21st century. But i guess there is a Hitler wax statue at the Tussauds in Berlin.

    Genghis murdered millions of people because their Kings wouldn't surrender, or their armies resisted the pillaging and rape of Genghis' armies. That is not good business tactics.

    Although he did like meritocracies, where people are selected for their abilities, that is no reason to model a business on him. Every business does that except Ma & Pa's Tea House.

    He was just a poor misunderstood mongol who lost all those he loved. Why are you so heartless?

    Was being sarcastic, sorry.

    Was mocking those who defend past tyrants, and murderers, and offer a sympathetic view of them.

    Which is what I was told the Mongol movie did.

    Ghengis Khan was a closet modern businessman trapped in the body of a 13th century mongol warlord. Gotcha.

    You can't fool me. I've played Rome: Total War. I KNOW for a fact that empires are built around sacking a city, moving your army out of it when the population builds up so they'll rebel, then sacking it again to lower squalor levels.
