Answer to Question 1

Coercive power is based on fear that the leader may cause people harm unless they support him or her. Reward power is derived from the belief that the leader can provide something that other people value so that they trade their support for the rewards. Legitimate power is the legal or formal authority to make decisions subject to certain constraints. Expert power is derived from the leader's valued knowledge or skills, which other people recognize as worthy of respect. Referent power is derived from the satisfaction people receive from identifying themselves with the leader.
