Summary
At last there is a book to balance the hundreds of management books on leadership that gives followers the insights & tools necessary to partner effectively with their leaders. Chaleff explores the dynamics of the leader-follower relationship-the underlying moral & psychological forces at work & the respective powers each party has in the relationship. He shows how courageous followers can improve that relationship for the benefit of themselves, the leader, & the common purpose. At each stage he examines the necessity for courage in a healthy follower-leader relationship. For anyone who works closely with a leader of any kind, it is a comprehensive guide for helping the leader use power wisely to accomplish the organization's purpose.
