Week 5 Discussion – The Positive/Negative Effects of Power
The use of power has positive and negative impact on the organization. After reviewing the subject in the text share your thoughts on the various types of power and how they may be used to either drive or ruin the business. Under what business conditions should each be used? Is there a universal model for a firm in growth vs. one that is decline? How does the use of power differ in a global vs. a domestic business? Are leaders able to use various forms of power depending on the situation or is personality dependent?
Hint: Think about power both in terms of the person who has it, and the person who does not have it. May also want to consider the person who does not have it but wants it, as well as the person who does not have power and doesn’t care.
