What are five types or source of power than a leader may have?

Legitimate power, coercive power, reward power, expert power, and referent power.

Supportive leader

attends to group members' emotional needs. This style is especially helpful when members feel frustrated with a task or with each other.

Legitimate power

comes from an individual's role or title. Ex: the president, your supervisor at work.

Expert power

comes from the information or knowledge that a leader possesses. Expert power is divided in Jaws. Faced with any other kind of homicide, Brody's credentials as a former NYC police officer might have given a fair amount of expert power. But as a newcomer, he gets little respect from the islanders.

Directive leader

controls the groups' communication by conveying specific instructions to members. This style works best when members are unsure of what's expected of them or how to carry out the groups' tasks.

Reward power

derives from an individual's capacity to provide rewards. Ex: your boss might offer all the people in your department a paid day off if they work late three nights in a row on an important project.

What are the four leadership styles mentioned in your textbook?

directive, participative, supportive, and achievement-oriented leader.

Leadership

is the ability to influence others behaviors and thoughts toward a productive end.

Achievement-oriented leader

sets challenging goals and communicates high expectations and standards to members. This style works best when group members see themselves as competent and are motivated to excel at their tasks.

Coercive power

stems from a persons' ability to threaten or harm others. A harsh dictator who keeps his people under threat of violence or economic hardship holds such power.

Referent power

stems from the admiration, respect, or affection that followers have for a leader. Ex: the popular kids in your high school may have had the power to influence other students' style of dress or behavior simply because others admired them.

Participative leader

views group members as equals, welcomes their opinions, summarizes points that have been raised, and identifies problems that need discussions rather than dictating solutions. This style works best when group members are competent and motivated to taken on the task at hand.
