Followership is at the heart of successful leadership.

According to David MacLennan, Executive Chair and Former CEO of Cargill, having a leadership title isn't enough to gain respect and followership. It's about building credibility, showing sincerity, and being reliable.

To truly connect with your team, be authentic and transparent. That's how you earn followership.

Trust is the key. As a leader, you need to work hard to earn the trust of your team and the entire organization.

Remember, leadership is about inspiring others to follow your lead. It starts with building trust and being someone worth following.
