Module 1: Discussion Forum

Answer the following question(s) (by replying to my example post below); type or copy/paste (from a Word doc) your initial post directly into the text editor (the best posts will have at least three (3) paragraphs with at least five (5) sentences each).  Refer to the grading rubric in the syllabus for specific qualitative requirements before making your post/response.

Based on what you’ve read and learned in Chapters 1 and 2 regarding power, define it as it is explained in the text, and then distinguish between position power and personal power. Next, define coercion as a specific type of power. Give examples of a leader or leaders you have observed using each of these forms of power (utilize enough textual evidence to effectively argue and articulate your point and help your discussion flow smoothly).
