What a real leader would do in a firefighting?
There is a fire. The firemen are trying to put off the fire. What are they likely to do? Each one would do their job (which they are good at). Sometimes they give commands and most of the times they follow. They follow someone who is closer to the fire. They take directions. They ultimate goal is to put off fire.
If we are recovering from a disaster and working hard for a turnaround, "followership" is more important than "leading" (prescription).
Followership gives us focus, disciple and confidence.
A leader is born when she follows. Followership is another form of Leadership
