FOLLOWERSHIP TO LEADERSHIP

Followership to Leadership (F2L) connects leaders and followers to enhance organizational performance. The program leverages leadership theory plus follower and team development models to learn how people leading without titles can only take your business to new heights.

F2L explores the leadership practice of followership, helping you understand how everyone from the enthusiastic go-getter to the quiet contributor impacts the leader's performance. With that, F2L shows how the follower types mix and navigate differences while also contextualizing stages of teamwork.

  • You will finally understand your people's behavior using the “Five Follower Types” model.
