site stats

If you didn’t know already: IE does not display this site correctly, due to web standards. Most importantly IE is susceptible to viruses, and spyware; due to Microsoft’s inability to patch it’s own browser in a timely manner. So I highly recommend, a safe, more standards compliant browser such as Mozilla Firefox.

Power…

Something I read in my “Ten Day MBA” book today…

There are 5 types of power…
Coercive - based on fear
Reward - opposite of coercive
Referent - have charisma to inspire and attract followers
Legitimate - due to formal status
Expert - skill, knowledge, or experience

So that got me thinking. If a leader has NONE of those powers, are they just completely useless as a leader?
