II. Make the summary of the text as in the example and learn it by heart.

Summary As can be seen each of the powers is created by the followers belief, if the follower does not hold the requisite belief then the leader is not able to influence them.

  • Reward power needs follower to believe leader will reward them.

  • Coercive power needs follower to believe leader will punish them.

  • Legitimate power needs follower to believe leader has right to instruct them.

  • Referent power need follower to believe leader has desirable qualities.

  • Expert power need follower to believe leader is an expert.

Whether the follower’s beliefs are correct is irrelevant, the beliefs alone will determine the type of power, a leader has over the follower.

Each of the leadership powers can be used by themselves or combined so that the leader has maximum influence. The leader will therefore need to think carefully about which power to use.

The use of one power could lead to a decrease in another for example coercive power (which necessitates the use of punishment) may decrease the leaders referent power , if it causes the followers to belief that the leader has qualities that aren’t admirable.
