Describe an international sport ministry context where you could be called on to follow the leadership of others. Provide at least 3 examples from the Pleuddemann textbook of cultural elements you ought to consider when preparing to be an effective follower.

Questions to consider:

· What does it mean to be a follower? Is this necessarily always a good or bad thing? Explain.

· What are characteristics of effective leadership? Especially in the context of sport ministry. Who do you think exhibits these characteristics of an excellent leader in this field?

· What cultural elements can inhibit someone from being an effective leader? Are there times when a person is constrained to only do so much?
