CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. Followership dominates our lives and organizations, but not our thinking, because our preoccupation with leadership keeps us from considering the nature and the importance of the follower. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. Effective followers differ in their motivations for following and in their perceptions of the role. Some choose followership as their primary role at work and serve as team players who take satisfaction in helping to further a cause, an idea, a product, a service, or more rarely, a person. Others are leaders in some situations but choose the follower role in a particular context. Both these groups view the role of follower as legitimate, inherently valuable, even virtuous. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 1. Effective followers share a number of essential qualities: a. They manage themselves well. b. They are committed to the organization and to a purpose; principle, or person outside themselves. c. They build their competence and focus their efforts for maximum impact. d. They are courageous, honest, and credible. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. 2. Self-Management. Another aspect of this paradox is that effective followers see themselves except in terms of line responsibility as the equals of the leaders they follow. Ineffective followers, on the other hand, buy into the hierarchy and, seeing themselves as subservient; vacillate between despair over their seeming powerlessness and attempts to manipulate leaders for their own purposes.

Paradoxically, the key to being an effective follower is the ability to think for oneself to exercise control and independence and to work without close supervision. Good followers are people to whom a leader can safely delegate responsibility, people who anticipate needs at their own level of competence and authority. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 2. Self-Management. Self-managed followers give their organizations a significant cost advantage because they eliminate much of the need for elaborate supervisory control systems that, in any case, often lower morale.

Effective followers are committed to something a cause, a product, an organization, an idea in addition to the care of their own lives and careers. Some leaders misinterpret this commitment. Commitment is contagious. On the other hand, followers who are strongly committed to goals not consistent with the goals of their companies can produce destructive results. Leaders having such followers can even lose control of their organizations. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 3. Commitment. Effective followers temper their loyalties to satisfy organizational needs or they find new organizations. Effective leaders know how to channel the energies of strong commitment in ways that will satisfy corporate goals as well as a follower's personal needs. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 4. Competence and Focus. On the grounds that committed incompetence is still incompetence, effective followers master skills that will be useful to their organizations. They generally hold higher performance standards than the work environment requires, and continuing education is second nature to them, a staple in their professional development. Good followers see coworkers as colleagues rather than competitors. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 4. Courage. Effective followers are credible, honest, and courageous. They establish themselves as independent, critical thinkers whose knowledge and judgment can be trusted. They give credit where credit is due, admitting mistakes and sharing successes. They form their own views and ethical standards and stand up for what they believe in. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE. 5. Cultivating Effective Followers. Effective followers are, confusingly enough, pretty much the same qualities found in some effective leaders. If a person has initiative, self control, commitment, talent, honesty, credibility, and courage, we say, "Here is a leader!" Followership is a prerequisite for organizational success. Your organization can take four steps to cultivate effective followers in your workforce. HONOR. PATRIOTISM. DUTY. ARMY 2040: WORLD-CLASS. MULTI-MISSION READY. CROSS-DOMAIN CAPABLE.
