Publisher's Synopsis
Leaders were once followers themselves; Good followers often become leaders. One always is in this followership-leadership continuum. The book is about followership, which has been overlooked and receives only a fraction of the attention that leadership does. It develops a model of followership that, when well implemented, can allow individuals to move to increasingly greater levels of leadership while continuing to apply the model. The book focuses on the crucial function of effective followership and how effective followers behave through the critical followership traits known as Duads. One does not become a leader without first being a follower, and to be a great leader, one must first be an effective follower.
