Leadership gets all the glory, but let’s be real – without great followers, nothing gets done. This session flips the script on traditional leadership talks and dives into the overlooked (but essential) art of followership. With humor, hard truths and practical insights, we’ll explore why being a great follower is a skill worth mastering – for both project leaders and team members – and why organisations should pay more attention to the real most valuable players: followers.
