Book excerpt: "My intent in this book is to equip those in follower roles to understand, value, and execute those roles with excellence. Whether we work in an office, sit in a classroom, serve on a committee, play on a team, or join in a congregation, we are followers whenever other people have titles, authority, and responsibility that include us within their sphere of oversight. We are followers, and we call those above us leaders. If that label feels uncomfortable or demeaning to you, read on. Part of our journey will be to overcome the negative stereotypes attached to the word 'follower' -- even those we tend to believe ourselves. This is not a book on leadership strategy or about creating good followers. It is an investigation into how to be a good follower. It is an encouragement to shift our perspective about our leaders and ourselves to one that enables us to contribute as followers with both contentment and excellence"--Introduction.
