Overview

Proverbial Leadership provides a compelling narrative that emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between leadership and wisdom. It connects the wisdom found in proverbial expressions with the wisdom needed in leadership. Proverbial Leadership paints a clear picture of the dynamism and fluidity that proverbial leadership can offer. Dr. Darlington Akaiso aims to cut through the ambiguity and confusion of modern leadership to show us that leadership should be designed by nature and leaders should understand that it is through wisdom that complex and challenging situations are understood. With the rise in leadership corruption in the modern age, wisdom has been relegated to an afterthought; money and gain are the goals of modern leaders, leaving behind their followers. Many proverbs are sourced from everyday experiences; they are universal, cutting across races, ethnic lines, cultures, religions, traditions, and languages. In this connection, proverbs could be seen as the necessary ingredient of natural leadership, they are the apparatuses that can help mankind learn and grow. Proverbial Leadership aims to bring leadership training back to its roots, to use proverbs and nature itself as the guiding light in leadership. In this, we can grow to be perfectly responsive to the demands of the ever-changing world. Proverbial Leadership will continue to prosper against the scientific or technological because in any given situation, it remains adaptable, resilient, ceaseless and permanent. Considering its ties to nature, Proverbial Leadership never vanishes.
