A Closer Look at the End of Leadership: A Digital Followership Collection for Leadership Education

Abstract

Undoubtedly, the field of leadership has experienced a significant shift in recent years. As followership studies and research gain increasing attention, there is a growing call to prepare for its continued development. Thus, Virginia Tech, through a mini-grant and two years of research, is building a digital followership collection with the goal of supporting and advancing the field. This session will introduce participants to the platform, share its potential benefits across contexts, and demonstrate how artificial intelligence interfaces with the digital followership collection.
