The problem addressed by this study was that although the concept of followership styles has been in existence since the late 1980s, there has been little work done to fully flush out the theory as compared to the existing leadership literature despite the widely acknowledged impact of followers on organizational and leadership successes (Abbas, 2018; Alegbeleye & Kaufman, 2019; Bufalino, 2018; Carsten et al., 2018; Essa & Alattari, 2019; Gobble, 2017; Guay & Choi, 2015). Followers, as with leaders, can exhibit different styles of followership, based on levels of engagement and critical thinking. This is in opposition to how followers are often portrayed in leadership studies where they are often assumed to be a homogoneous, conforming group. The purpose of this study was to begin to fill the gap in the literature, as several scholars have called not only for further inquiry into followership but into the relationship between followership style and personality. The Kelley Followership Model and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, two well-established instruments were administered to a sample of entry-level warehouse logistics workers in the state of Ohio. The study was designed to use quantitative correlation analysis to examine the relationship, if any, between followership style and personality type. Due to changes in researcher access through the course of the study, the participation rate was unfortunately too low (n = 3) for statistical analysis to be conducted, thus the research question querying what relationship, if any, exists was unable to be determined. The few results received did indicate that not all followers are homogenous, as indicated within existing literature, since all three full participants scored as three different MBTI types. Meaningful implications were unable to be drawn due to the low participation rate, however, a number of recommendations for future research were able to be made including, and perhaps most importantly, recruiting and administering instruments on-site as that was the biggest limitation encountered over the course of this study. In this way, the study still contributed to existing literature and theory, setting the stage for future research into followership and personality.
