Followship may be an invented word but I for one really like it!
Let's face it, the ideal of "leadership and followership" beats the hell out of any old fashioned "control and be controlled" philosophy adopted by some military commanders of the past.
The question of 'blindly following' is discussed in great depth in the book; "On the Psychology of Military Incompetence" by Norman F. Dixon.
