Abstract: Abstract Research on followership is providing new perspectives on leadership. The focus has shifted from the leader to the follower, and the dynamics of who influences whom are being questioned. There is some evidence that leaders and followers engage in co-envision and co-construct policies, procedures, and outcomes of an organization. In this paper, the role of culture in shaping leadership and followership is examined in the context of the theory of individualism and collectivism. Testable propositions are presented to stimulate future research.
