1. Biography & Impact
When it comes to talk about the most charming and great leader in my mind, I would like to introduce Yang Lan, one of the most successful businesswomen in China. As we all know, Yang Lan is the president of Sun Television Cybernetworks, and she is also a famous talk show hostess in China, in addition, she is co-owner with the famous singer Celine Dion of LAN Fine Jewellery which sells the luxury jewelry that made in China. In 1999, Yang Lan was voted as one of the twenty social and cultural leaders by “Asian Weeks” which proves her great success in business field. Moreover, Sun Television Cyberneworks has been twice priced of the best small enterprise by <Forbes> in 2000 and 2001. Recently Yang Lan has become the 20th richest women with 7 billion Yuan worth in the “Hu Run Female Networth”, which provide evidence of her leadership capability.
Successful people always bring a huge influence to the social society no matter to someone individual or a whole community. There is no doubt that Yang Lan has been bringing constantly influence to her employees, customers, and the community.
For her employees, Yang Lan always get high committed with all employees, and help them to increase engagement in the company. For example, because of the high percentage of 60% female in Sun Television Cybernetworks, Yang has tried to establish a good relationship with another enterprise which includes most male employees, so that to help her employees have more opportunities to find love. From my perspective, this is an efficient way to help employees to build sense of belongs, and feel in-group with their president.
For her customers, Yang Lan always does a customer-oriented business, and put priority of customers’ needs and favor. For example, Yang Lan One-on-One is a signature TV talk show which focuses on getting to know leading figures from the fields of international politics,

    Yang Jianguo was recently promoted from country manager for China to global head of product development at a French perfume maker named Deronde. He had been country manager for the China operations, having been promoted from his job running a lab that had produced two hit scents in the Asian market. The company’s CEO, Alain Deronde had chosen Jianguo over three other rising stars. Yves Saurac, one of the three rising stars, was the vice president of the company who everyone had assumed to get job instead of Jianguo. Yves was also close friend with the CEO’s family but Jianguo succeeded in the competition. Jianguo was eager to succeed in his new role in Paris. There were several issues to deal with in the first place. The company’s best prospects were in emerging markets, yet consumers in China and many other Asian markets found the Western scents unpleasantly strong. Sales were weak in Latin America as well.

When, three of them had a moment to connect privately, Yves expressed his earnest concern about company’s future and how Jianguo avoid talking to him about the issue of connecting Eastern and Western culture.…
