Types of Followership
Robert Kelley was one of few people who studied followers. He recognized that they are different from one another and he identified five followership patterns according to the level of activity and behavior (whether the individual is an independent critical thinking or not).
The two graphics on this page illustrate the five followers’ type according to Kelley and their characteristics (Kellerman, 2008, p.81).
