Abstract:
Followers dominate all organizations, but a preoccupation with leaders hinders the consideration of the importance of followers and the relationship between followers and leaders. The topic of this book is how to become a better leader by becoming a better follower. The book includes chapters on the topics of: leadership theory, followership theory, preparation for the job, understanding what is required for the job, communication, initiative, positive attitude, responsibility, problem solving, and teamwork. This book provides suggestions for becoming an exemplary follower which will demonstrate and manifest the skills associated with leadership and bridge the gap between leadership training and followership.
