what is followership
Defining Followership. Followership is the art and skill of effectively following a leader towards the achievement of a vision. Followership can exist in many contexts from sports teams to a formal work office to a church volunteer based project. Followership, however, does not mean that you blatantly follow with no thoughts or comprehension about what is actually going on (Bjugstad, Thach, Thompson, & Morris, 2006, p. 304).
