Conduct research on French and Raven's five bases of power, which include coercive, legitimate, reward, referent, and expert power. For the first part of your post, choose five leaders, one for each of the power bases, and give a brief example to support why a leader's use of power best exemplifies a certain power base.

• Assess which base of power is most appealing to you from the perspective of both a leader and a follower.
• Justify which leader seems the most successful, using specific examples and research to support your view.
• Propose a supported plan (three or four action steps) for how you (or the organization) might help one of the least successful leaders you chose to improve their leadership success.
• Analyze a leader that uses a good balance of the different bases of power. How does this leader compare to those who have a dominant style?
