Leadership vs. Followership

Submitted by Editor on March 26, 2009 – 5:54 pmNo Comment

Leadership and/vs. Management.

One or other is better. You can not have one without the other. A lot of talk on this subject. I am convinced that we need even more. There is gold in the research data and there are diamonds in the experience of seasoned executives.

Without saying anything new: a leader is the one that influences the actions of others around him in the direction of achieving the goal of an organization.

What seems to get put aside often is the fact that a leader needs followers. We will talk about Leadership but we will have to talk about Followership also.
