Answer to Question 1

C
Subordinate power (DuBrin, 2000) can be exerted upward in the organizational chain of command by employees based on legal and justice considerations. Subordinate power can be used when employees perceive that an order is going against the limitations of legitimate authority and they have the power to rebel. Coercion or reward power is based on the ability to reward or punish others (Miller, 2003). Expert power is derived from expertise, knowledge, and skills (Fisher & Koch, 1996), and information power is derived from power based on the information that an individual can provide to the group (Miller, 2003).

Answer to Question 2

c

C is correct: Superior is the term replaced by leader. Leader replaced the previously used term superior. A participant can be both a follower and a leader in various circumstances.
