The Great Khan of Khan

1ST GREAT KHAN OF MONGOL EMPIRE

Genghis Khan^{[note 3]} (c. 1162 – August 18, 1227), born Temüjin, was the Great Khan and founder of the Mongol Empire, which became the largest contiguous empire in history after his death. He came to power by uniting many of the nomadic tribes of Northeast Asia. After founding the Empire and being proclaimed "Genghis Khan", he launched the Mongol invasions that conquered most of Eurasia. Campaigns initiated in his lifetime include those against the Qara Khitai, Caucasus, and Khwarazmian, Western Xia and Jin dynasties. These campaigns were often accompanied by large-scale massacres of the civilian populations – especially in the Khwarazmian and Western Xia controlled lands. By the end of his life, the Mongol Empire occupied a substantial portion of Central Asia and China.

Beyond his military accomplishments, Genghis Khan also advanced the Mongol Empire in other ways. He decreed the adoption of the Uyghur script as the Mongol Empire's writing system. He also practiced meritocracy and encouraged religious tolerance in the Mongol Empire, and unified the nomadic tribes of Northeast Asia. Present-day Mongolians regard him as the founding father of Mongolia. Source : wiki 

Genghis Khan is known for the brutality of his campaigns^[9] and considered by many to have been a genocidal ruler . Genocide is intentional action to destroy a people (usually defined as an ethnic, national, racial, or religious group) in whole or in part. The hybrid word "genocide" is a combination of the Greek word génos ("race, people") and the Latinsuffix -cide ("act of killing") .

9 Lessons on Power and Leadership from Genghis Khan

Have An End in Mind

"For the Mongol warrior, there was no such thing as individual honor in battle if the battle was lost. As Genghis Khan reportedly said, there is no good in anything until it is finished."

Lead from the Front

"When it was wet, we bore the wet together, when it was cold, we bore the cold together.”

Serve a Greater Good Than Yourself

"[A leader] can never be happy until his people are happy."

Have a Vision

"Without the vision of a goal, a man cannot manage his own life, much less the lives of others...The ancients had a saying: ‘Unity of purpose is a fortune in affliction.’”

Be Self-Reliant

"No friend is better than your own wise heart! Although there are many things you can rely on, no one is more reliable than yourself. Although many people can be your helper, no one should be closer to you than your own consciousness. Although there are many things you should cherish, no one is more valuable than your own life.”

Be Humble

"The mastery of pride, which was something more difficult, he explained, to subdue than a wild lion. He warned them that, 'If you can't swallow your pride, you can't lead.'"

Be Moderate

"I hate luxury. I exercise moderation...It will be easy to forget your vision and purpose one you have fine clothes, fast horses and beautiful women. [In which case], you will be no better than a slave, and you will surely lose everything."

Understand Your People

"People conquered on different sides of the lake should be ruled on different sides of the lake."

Change the World, But Change it Gradually

"The vision should never stray far from the teaching of the elders. The old tunic fits better and it always more comfortable; it survives the hardships of the bush while the new or untried tunic is quickly torn."
