IntroductionOrder in society is established and maintained through effective group communication. The most essential is group communication since societies always have a leader-follower dimension in different contexts. Understanding this dimension is essential to unlock cohesive coexistence in societies. Initially, research responded to this need for understanding by focusing discourses on how individuals become effective leaders. Confucius, Plato, Laozi, and Aristotle all discussed the development of a leader. However, recent developments in corporate thinking and perception have prompted researchers to focus on the strategies and attitudes associated with leaders' followers (Kelley, 1992). Such studies are not only essential to assist followers in their development, but also to facilitate effective group communication. There cannot be leaders without followers; therefore, leadership is in a constant dialectic with followership. Among the most important contributors to the other side of the coin is Robert E. Kelley in his tracking theory. This article will explore Kelley's tracking theory, including its description, rationale for exploring the theory with respect to practical significance, theoretical significance, and intrinsic interest. . Literature that supports and challenges the theory will also be explored as well as critiques of the theory. Criticisms will also be explored, highlighting evidence that supports or disapproves of them. The origin of Kelley's theory of followership can be traced to religion. He reflected on how followers of Jesus Christ changed the world and thus considered the fundamental questions that make follow-through effective. Followship theory was first published in the Harvard Business Review......middle of the article......doesn't talk about their different cognitive styles because there are many factors that determine what an individual decides other than their disposition. . For example, a worker may decide not to speak out, not because he is a sheep, but because he does not consider speaking out to be the immediate priority. References Kelly, RE (1988).
