Follow the Leader
This talk will explore some of the unusual findings in leadership research. Lachlan will not be telling you how to be great/charismatic/mindful/etc. leaders. What you will learn from this session is how to be a more careful follower. Following is not the most appealing topic, the annoying reality is that we are all followers. Sometimes we choose who to follow, and other times we have followership thrust on us. After this talk, you will be asking yourself some questions about who the leaders are in your world, why they are considered leaders and whether they are worthy of you following them.
