Nazmul HoqueResearch proposal13489031Introduction:Sport is my passion. From my childhood, I was involved in different games like athletics, football etc. I love to watch football a lot specially Spanish league. My favourite team is Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo is my favourite player. He was the best player of the team but he was not captain or I meant to say he was not leader. But he had an outstanding career with Real Madrid and had huge achievement. He had a strong role in team and always took part in decision making. This is a real life example. Like Cristiano Ronaldo, lot of follower are everyday influence their leader in decision making.Most the research are concentrated on leadership but a very few study found about followers role. I am going to research on followership role. Some studies also started to investigate the role of follower (Shamir, 2007; p. 9). What the role a follower has been performing in the perception of leadership (Avolio, Walumbwa & Weber, 2009; Collinson, 2006)The study of followership is very important for the better understanding of leadership (Shamir, 2007). Myresearch topic is that “How can followers influence leaders”? To get the real life experience, I have chosen non -profit organization as a field of study and will try to bring the answer of my research question “How much influence do followers have over their leaders in two Nelson non-profit organizations, how and when is that influence used?”3
