The final component in the model is the four stages of follower readiness:
R1: People are both unable and unwilling to take responsibility for doing something. Followers aren’t competent or confident.
R2: People are unable but willing to do the necessary job tasks. Followers are motivated but lack the appropriate skills.
R3: People are able but unwilling to do what the leader wants. Followers are competent, but don’t want to do something.
R4: People are both able and willing to do what is asked of them.
