Polly et al.,
I used a terrific book several years ago in my leadership class: The Courageous Follower: Standing Up To and
For Our Leaders by Ira Chaleff (1995), San Francisco, Berrett-Koehler. While it doesn't focus specifically on team member roles, I think it would be great background for dealing with many follower issues. The six chapters cover dynamics of the leader-follower relationship, the courage to assume responsibility, the courage to serve, the courage to challenge, the courage to participate in transformation, and the courage to leave.
Good luck with your course.

Subject: resources on followers
Greetings,
I will be teaching a small groups course in a couple of months (for undergraduate adult, working students). When we study leadership, I would also like to include the role of followers from two perspectives: 1) that they are important to the group's success, and 2) that they will typically serve as leaders to portions of the task or group process. I know I studied this years ago, but I'm drawing a blank trying to come up with appropriate articles.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
