First follower

From yesterday's video about the importance of a first follower through the concept of dance  I was able to realize just how important a first follower is and how they don't gain much recognition. One question I now have is that if there is a leader and no one is there  willing to follow  them , then are they really a leader?  The first follower has to have a lot of courage  and has to strongly be insupport of the individual who is trying to be a leader .  They are the people who will then provide encouragement for others  to join in and ultimately there will be a group big enough to support what the  original  leaders'  initial idea was and therefore make a difference/movement. That's what I learnt from that video and it was quite a fun and lighthearted way to  teach  the importance  of a first follower
