Publisher's Synopsis
For every leader there are dozens of followers working closely with them. This book speaks to those followers and gives them the insights and tools for being effective partners with their leaders. It is a guide that can be kept on a bookshelf and referred to repeatedly when confronted with the challenges of supporting and, at times, correcting a dynamic leader. Since its original release in 1995, The Courageous Follower has been quoted and put on reading lists everywhere from military leadership courses to church sermons to union meeting notices to corporate leadership programs. It has been recognized as the missing link in leadership development and in the sustainability of core values by senior management teams. This new edition has been updated and expanded to speak to the widespread failures of leadership we have witnessed - from the Catholic Church to the FBI to the largest corporations in the world. Boards of Directors, Senior Managers and staff who are loyal to the mission of their organizations, will all find the expanded edition more essential than ever to preventing and righting leadership wrongs and supporting and fostering values-based leadership efforts.
