“When you are too big to follow, you are too small to lead.”
- Rich Wilkerson Jr.
Today’s conversation centers on “Followership” – a critical component to leadership. Leading well starts with following well, and the best leaders understand that following is a key part of their leadership journey. Unfortunately, many young and emerging leaders today are overexposed and underdeveloped. These leaders have stopped accepting feedback, listening, learning, reading, or praying. They have forgotten that followership is a part of leadership.
In this episode we discuss the three things that people who follow well do right, and how you can emulate them. We also discuss the key differences between being teachable, and being coachable.
If you have found yourself in any type of leadership position, whether it is in your family, your school, your workplace, or your church, this mini-episode will provide you with the tools you need to follow well, in order to lead well.
