Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Carsten and colleagues, proactive followers prioritize the organization's goals ahead of the leader's goals, thus putting the organization's goals ahead of the leader's goals.

Option B is completely incorrect as proactive followers do not prioritize leader goals over the company's mission. Option C is wrong because proactive followers are not blind supporters of the leader under any circumstances.
