Acclaim for Proverbial Business

“Weyinmi Jemide has written an easy-to-read, insight-packed book that will encourage you to find the hidden gems in the book of Proverbs. He has carefully woven ancient truths and modern illustrations into a rich fabric that will enhance your life as a leader and businessperson.”

“Proverbial Business is an unusual but refreshing book. It confirms the relevance of Biblical (and in particular the Book of Proverbs) principles to business, management and leadership in contemporary times. Weyinmi Jemide demonstrates the need for wisdom in diverse business applications including leadership, managing meetings, product design, marketing and managing in economic downturns. I also like his focus on topics many of us will prefer ignored such as ethics in business, non-business relationships, “false balances”, etc. He finds parallels between Proverbs and the words of modern business gurus - Jack Welch, Stephen Covey and Peter Senge, amongst others. Proverbial Business is quite interesting and stimulating and will benefit readers of diverse professional and religious backgrounds.”

Proverbial Business is a product of spiritual depth and incisive thinking. ‘Weyinmi Jemide dissects the revered wisdom of King Solomon as enunciated in the Book of Proverbs through crystal-clear analysis. With the use of the Key Principles and Thought Activators as effective vehicles, he brings the essence of each chapter to bear on our daily endeavours. The book is comprehensive, evocative and indeed inspirational.”
