Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Kellerman argues that in the last 40 years, there has been a shift from leader-dominated power to shared power with followers, which is the essence of the concept of "followership." Therefore, the best choice is B, which specifically mentions a shift from leader-dominated power to shared power with followers. Choices A, C, and D do not accurately reflect Kellerman's argument.
