Boss A person who gives orders to employees and behaves in an authoritative way, seeks control and tell his men what to do. Leader A person who influences, inspires, supports and encourahes a grpup of individuals. Good follower Followers follow the leadership of the boss My husband is like a boss. Of course we are running a business . And I feel like I am a leader at the same time a good follower. Just curious which one describes to you?

I handled a team of more than 15 people for 5 years and I did not consider myself as a boss. I know my limitations as a leader. I have follow rules - walk the talk or set examples to my direct reports.

I honestly consider myself to be a good follower, but I have the ability to be a leader and I'm willing to take up that role when needed.

I think that I am the same combination like you, leader and a good follower... Sometimes more leader, sometimes just good follower. :)

I am more like a leader and sometimes a follower . Even at home or at the office my approach is let's do it rather than asking people to do it.

Over the many years I have done all of the above. I am best at leader or a good follower. I can inspire people and get people going in the right direction, but all the additional paperwork a boss brings, I was not a fan of that.
