Answer to Question 1

Answer: Power is an external motivator. Here, Ken is very much trying to control Ruth's behavior instead of permitting her the latitude to make good decisions on her own. Power is competitive. Ken appears to derive satisfaction from putting Ruth down and criticizing her. He seems afraid to give her any leeway, fearful that she may decrease his power. Empowerment is cooperative, nonexclusive, and is directed toward allowing people self-determination. In order to shift power to empowerment, Ken needs to remove the focus from him and his success, and rely on the fact that if he gives Ruth the attention, information, and resources she needs to succeed, he will be better off as well.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
