Answer to Question 1

Position power comes with the job; it is formal power due to the structure of the organization. There are four bases to it. Legitimate authority is recognized by others. Reward power represents control over rewards others value and receive. Coercive power is the ability to punish noncompliance. Information power exists by virtue of one's access to data and information.

Personal power is influence due to an individual's unique qualities or characteristics and has four bases. Rational persuasion is the ability to make logical arguments from evidence and facts. Expert power is based on superior knowledge in a certain field. Referent power grows from one's personal qualities. It comes from others' admiration and acceptance of the individual. Charisma is simply an engaging and magnetic personality, people want to do what you want.
