The 3,000-Year-Old Edge Most Leaders Ignore
Steve Smith introduces the Savage Executive Podcast and frames Proverbs as an underutilized leadership and business strategy text, presenting five operating principles from Solomon: excellence as a door-opener (Prov. 22:29), building an intentional advisory circle for guidance and blind-spot prevention (Prov. 11:14), planning with diligence before acting to avoid costly haste (Prov. 21:5), understanding negotiation and relational dynamics beneath surface objections (Prov. 20:14), and treating reputation as compounding capital worth protecting above profit (Prov. 22:1). He anchors these in humility and teachability from “the fear of the Lord” as the beginning of knowledge (Prov. 1:7), encourages reading one chapter of Proverbs daily with application notes, invites contact and reviews, and previews the next episode on five practices that separate exceptional leaders.
