Tip#478: Great Teamwork Movies Part 2 – Red Cliff

I have been working on a highly enjoyable book project that is helping focus my direction as a motivational speaker AND has become another social media success story. Back on June 14, 2011 I posted a simple request for recommendations of movies that show great leadership via 3 channels: Facebook, LinkedIn and direct emails from my database. The results have been incredible.

Using social media has been an amazing team spirit experience. To date I have received over 200 movie recommendations from several LinkedIn group discussions with members from around the world! One of these film write-ups came from Kaushal C, an Independent Music Professional in the Bengaluru Area, India, Somehow his description of a movie called Red Cliff inspired me to quickly see the stunning movie trailer and then purchase the 2-disc Edition DVD right away!

Red Cliff 2008

The 2 part movie called Red Cliff is a Chinese epic war film based on the Battle of Red Cliffs (208-209 AD). It demonstrates great leadership and teamwork among a number of outstanding leaders forming an alliance against a common enemy. Among these many leaders is Grand Viceroy Zhou Yu (Tony Leung), his sister Sun Shangxiang (Zhao Wei) and Chief advisor Zhuge Liang (Takeshi Kaneshiro).

This John Woo directed film shows a number of stunning battle sequences that demonstrate the creativity and strategic thinking of diverse leaders working together. The teamwork is a success because they each share their own unique skill sets and wisdom with every battle they face. And while the violence is extreme the movie successfully shows the beauty and richness of the people and land they are all fighting to maintain and preserve.

If I hadn't utilized the power of LinkedIn and social media I may not have discovered this rich, inspiring movie as well as collect a vast number of movie recommendations. And now I get to share my discovery of a new film showing great leadership and teamwork with you via this blog. Social media once again demonstrates the amazing power of teamwork via online.
