ZARATE T, Rodrigo Arturo  e  ACOSTA P, Julio César. The importance of theories about employees in efficient leadership and management. Rev. esc.adm.neg [online]. 2012, n.73, pp.96-115. ISSN 0120-8160.

In almost all leadership theories, two actors are always mentioned, leaders and collaborators (also known as followers); however, the latter ones haven 't been the object of research. Today, very few works can be found on collaborators' theories. This research shows a bibliographic revision on collaborators' attributes based on the studies made by Antelo, Prilipko and Sheridan- Pereira (2010) and its implications on management, which is translated into the identification of inhibition factors and facilitators of collaborators interacting in a working environment. The identification of these attributes will favour leadership management and the generation of working conditions that facilitate either information flow and knowledge of collaborators or the disposition to establish goal- oriented interpersonal relationships and the procurement of better results with organizations.

Palavras-chave : Followers; Collaborators' attributes; Leadership; Management.
