Torture in Abu Ghraib prison. Corporate fraud. Falsified records at Veterans Administration hospitals. Teachers pressured to feed test answers to students. These scandals could have been prevented if, early on, people had said no to their higher-ups. Ira Chaleff discusses when and how to disobey inappropriate orders, reduce unacceptable risk, and find better ways to achieve legitimate goals. He delves into the psychological dynamics of obedience, drawing in particular on what Stanley Milgram's seminal Yale experiments-in which volunteers were induced to administer shocks to innocent people-teach us about how to reduce compliance with harmful orders. Using vivid examples of historical events and everyday situations, he offers advice on judging whether intelligent disobedience is called for, how to express opposition, and how to create a culture where citizens are educated and encouraged to think about whether orders make sense. --

Followership teaches leaders how to replicate effective, biblical leadership qualities. CEOs, managers, parents, clergy, and students alike gain insight from the practical principles presented. If you lead, serve, or want to build a motivated, innovative, and successful team, you will receive outstanding results as you apply these teachings. Followership: • Teaches principles for both leaders and followers and can be practiced in any aspect of building an organization. • Declares and supports the fact that followership is what makes or breaks leadership, leadership is what makes or breaks an organization. • Is your resource book for developing a dynamic followership culture within your life and organization. Most likely you’ve been taught how to lead, but do you know how to follow? The true art of leadership is followership. There are many resource materials on leadership, yet little if any resources on how to follow your leader. Followership is designed to infuse your person and organization with the motivation, heart, and intention that every successful and lasting team is built upon. Leaders of every type and level can use Followership as a training manual to build healthy, happy, high performance teams. Because of the character development aspects, it is an asset to network groups, support groups, and church home groups.

"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.

Building upon the growing scholarship on workplace spirituality and organizational leadership, this book offers practical and theoretical perspectives on integrating faith at work.

This unique retrospective, with over three hundred rarely seen documents, traces the impact of Ira Chaleff's ground breaking work that conceives of followership as the indispensable complement to leadership. Building on this record, it introduces the work of the community of followership educators and practitioners that has flourished in tandem with those initiatives. The narratives preceding each chronological segment place the documents in historic context. They suggest new veins of research for the upcoming generation of scholars drawn to this emerging field. The narratives inform, clarify, surprise, at times amuse and often inspire. The theorists, educators, trainers and coaches engaged with the subject of followership are a highly motivated group. They understand the power of the subject to change the way leadership is done, to support its virtues, curb its excesses and improve its outcomes. They also perceive that much of the world doesn't know about followership or sufficiently value it. There is truth in this statement. But it is not the entire truth. The purpose of this volume is to document the impressive variety of countries and institutions where courageous followership, and the other major followership models, have made their impact. Filling in this picture will bolster the commitment of the followership community to find better ways of developing dynamic and ethical followership in society, a manifestly crucial need in the face of leadership failures and transgressions. In that sense, this is a love letter to the followership community and an inscription on the baton Chaleff is passing to them.

Can you imagine a choreographer only training one dancer to lead while his or her partner sits in the lobby staring at the wall? Yet we do this all the time in organizations. Half the partnership is missing. Leadership is Half the Story introduces the first model to seamlessly integrate leadership, followership, and partnerships. This research-backed, field-tested book contributes many new ideas and practical advice for everyone in an organization from CEO to HR director to front-line manager to consultant. All of us lead, not just those with the formal title. All of us follow, not just front-line staff. In great collaborations, one moment we are leading and then we flip to following; in other words, the relationship between leadership and followership is dynamic, context-specific, and ever-evolving. This empowering perspective opens up leadership to everyone, normalizes followership, and enables more productive and innovative collaborations. Candid discussions about both roles allow for better coaching, mentoring, skill development, and interpersonal agility, and result in stronger teams. Marc and Samantha Hurwitz give us a category-busting book that practically glows with energy and vision, according to Marshall Goldsmith, executive coach and best-selling author of What Got You Here Wont Get You There.

We understand the importance of great leadership, but what about its counterpart-great followership? Lead & Follow reveals the overlooked strength and subtlety of the follower's role through the striking metaphor of tango, a dance of one leader and one follower. Learning to follow well can give employees a deep sense of purpose, bring out the best in managers and supervisors, and accelerate creative innovation. When paired with familiar aspects of leadership, skillful followership can help teams synchronize quickly and produce superior results. In her three-part coaching model, dancer Sharna Fabiano demonstrates how to bring the powerful and complementary leader/follower principles of tango into the workplace. An abundance of practical strategies and self-inquiry exercises will help professionals, educators, and teams collaborate more successfully.
