A "Beta (Follower)" refers to an individual who tends to follow the lead of others rather than taking charge themselves. This term is often used in social dynamics to describe someone who is more comfortable in a supportive role, often valuing harmony and group consensus over assertiveness. Betas may exhibit traits such as empathy and cooperation, making them valuable team members.
In contrast to Alpha (Leader) personalities, who are typically more dominant and assertive, Betas often prefer to avoid conflict and maintain stability within a group. This dynamic can be seen in various settings, including workplaces, social groups, and even online communities.
