The Junzi Way
Lee Kuan Yew, Prime Minister of Singapore from 1959 until 1990 incorporated the concept of junzi, the Confucian ideal of being a moral person, as a key element in his plan to raise Singapore from a swampy, corrupt backwater into a modern metropolis. Henry Kissinger describes how Mr. Lee accomplished this feat in his recent book on leadership. Twenty-first century America has a lot to learn from Mr. Lee\u2019s accomplishments because we seem to have forgotten how we became rich and powerful ourselves. In this podcast, the Edifice of Trust host, Victor Bolles reviews Dr. Kissinger\u2019s observations about his friend, Lee Kuan Yew.
