Those with the fifth follower style are pragmatists who have a moderate level of
engagement and portray a moderate level of critical thinking (Kelley, 1992).
They are uncommitted and wait to see where things are going before they take action
(Kelley, 2008).
Pragmatists tend to maintain the status quo and wait for crises to pass before taking action
(Kelley, 2008).

3. CONVENTIONAL OR CONFORMIST FOLLOWER
Conformist followers are high in active engagement
but are dependent uncritical thinkers (Kelley, 1992).
Kelley (2008) referred to conformist followers as
yes people.
Conformist followers are very active doers that
unquestioningly follow leader directions (Bjugstad et
al., 2006; Kelley, 2008).

4. PASSIVE FOLLOWER
Passive followers are low in active engagement and are
dependent uncritical thinkers (Kelley, 1992).
Passive followers are referred to as sheep (Kelly, 2008)
who unquestioningly follow the leader but only after being
given constant direction (Bjugstad et al., 2006).
After completing a task, the passive follower typically
waits for direction before beginning the next task (Latour
& Rast, 2004).

5. EXEMPLARY FOLLOWER
Exemplary followers rank high in both active engagement and independent critical thinking.
Exemplary followers think for themselves and are therefore willing to challenge leaders by
providing alternative solutions if they disagree with the leader (Kelley, 1992).
They proactively support organizational goals and leader decisions that are congruent with their
beliefs (Kelley, 1992).
Exemplary followers assume responsibilities beyond their minimum job requirements and exert
considerable effort to accomplish goals (Blanchard et al., 2009, p. 112-113).
Finally, exemplary followers work well with others (Bjugstad et al., 2006).

CONTINGENCY THEORY
It is is an organizational theory that claims that there is no best way to organize a corporation, to lead a
company, or to make decisions. Instead, the optimal course of action is contingent (dependent) upon the
internal and external situation. Contingent leaders are flexible in choosing and adapting to succinct or
short strategies to suit change in situation at a particular period in time in the running of the organization.
