I was always a follower, seldom a leader.
But within the hierarchies of following a person, activity, or a cause I found significance. I always enjoyed being the student, and not the teacher, but I found camaraderie with my peers, and even influence as I got more acquainted.
It seems that most of the populous is inclined to follow. It seems to matter whether you're an introvert or an extrovert. Not to mention that some people just fall into leading, as if by accident.
