Proverb of the day: 'An army of sheep led by a lion would defeat...' Life lessons on leadership, strength, skills, strategic vision and courage

Proverb of the day continues to introduce readers to sayings that carry lessons for modern life. One of the most discussed proverbs is, "An army of sheep led by a lion would defeat an army of lions led by a sheep." The message explains that leadership often decides the outcome of any challenge.
