Hi,

Can you help me to answer a question for my LDR/300T: Innovative Leadership class? We are to discuss the relationship between power and leadership by answer following bullet questions. What power must a leader have to lead effectively?How can a leader acquire that power?What mechanisms can be put in place to prevent the leader from abusing his or her power?Support your responses with an example of a leader in a specific situation, real or imagined, such as the leader of a project team, the head of the marketing department, the CEO of a company, etc. Also, can you please share any reference source you use when helping me to answer this question?

Thanks in advance!

Sandy
