Followership isn’t about passively “doing what you’re told.” It’s an active, intentional role that demands discipline, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence. Great followership is as much a skill as great leadership. Tyranny, dysfunction, and failure often result when leaders lack the humility and empathy developed through followership. This book is about changing that narrative.
