Warren Bennis: No Leadership Without Followership
“…the longer I study effective leaders, the more I am convinced of the underappreciated importance of effective followers..”
Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business Administration at the University of Southern California School of Business Administration, THE
DILEMMA AT THE TOP; Followers Make Good Leaders Good, 1989

Leaders Need Effective Followers
“Executives who ignited transformations from good to great did not first figure out where to drive the bus, then get the right people to take it there. Instead, they got the right people on the bus and then figured out where to drive it.”
Jim Collins, “Good to Great”, 2001

Show Your Care About Monitoring the Key Data• Results Data – data that measures
attributes of the product to be delivered.– Costs, Times, Quantities, Quality
• Conditions Data – data that measures the attributes of the process that produces the product to be delivered.– Capability, Commitment, Collaboration

What Questions Are We Asking?
Automotive Gauge Asks the Question
Odometer How far have we gone?
Clock How much time has it taken?
Fuel Level How far can we go?
Speedometer How fast are we going now?
Tachometer How intensely is engine working?
Oil Pressure Do we have enough ‘lubrication’ to keep parts working well together?
Oil Temperature How smooth are interactions?
Water Pressure Do we have enough coolant to keep the engine producing?
Water Temperature How effective is the coolant in keeping the engine cool?
Voltmeter Is enough energy being applied to the other important systems?
