Being a Follower
Completion requirements
This content will dig deeper into "poor" leadership and how to avoid it in your business. You'll also learn about the importance of followers, how to ensure they are engaged, and how to ensure you, as the leader, give them what they need to succeed.
When leadership goes wrong
Summary
By now, you should have a better idea of what constitutes a poor leader and the negative impact of poor leadership. You've also considered how you might rectify some of the common mistakes leaders can make.
You should now feel that you can:
- recognise poor leadership in different forms
- reflect on the impact of poor or weak leadership
- describe ways in which leadership mistakes might be avoided.
Next week, you'll change perspective and start to look at leadership from the follower's point of view, moving on to consider your own followers and how you might develop them further.
