Abstract

The lack of followership among Senior High School (SHS) students is still a concern, as educational institutions focus on leadership while frequently overlooking key followership attributes, including accountability, collaboration, participation, and commitment. This study addressed the persistent concern regarding the limited understanding of followership among Senior High School (SHS) students, particularly as educational institutions often emphasize leadership while overlooking the role of followership in fostering accountability, collaboration, participation, and engagement. The study aimed to explore and describe SHS students’ experiences, perceptions, and demonstrations of followership in academic and organizational contexts using Kelley’s (1992) Model of Followership as a theoretical lens. Employing a qualitative-descriptive research design, data were gathered through focus group discussions involving 25 purposively selected SHS students from a remote-area school in Davao City, representing the five followership styles identified by Kelley: exemplary, conformist, passive, alienated, and pragmatist; the data were analyzed using Braun and Clarke’s (2006) thematic analysis framework. Findings revealed the presence of all five followership styles and highlighted distinct experiences related to engagement, critical thinking, self-doubt, conformity pressures, perceived powerlessness, and reflective decision-making. The study further extended Kelley’s framework by identifying emotional labor as a significant dimension across all followership styles and by demonstrating the influence of Filipino cultural values such as pakikisama, respeto, and bayanihan on students’ followership behaviors. Future research should examine the developmental nature of followership through longitudinal and cross-cultural studies and develop interventions that strengthen positive followership, emotional resilience, and student engagement in educational settings
