Chapter 5 Discussion

Most of you will agree that power and politics are alive and well in most organizations. Now the question is how do you as leaders use power to accomplish the missionâs goals? One of your objectives in this class is to sharpen your influencing people skills by studying different leadership methods. In this module, you will do exactly that by gaining a better understanding of how leaders use legitimate, reward, expert, referent, and coercive power to influence others.

As your text indicates, the three distinct outcomes that may result from the use of power to influence others: compliance, resistance, and commitment. The effective use of position power generally leads to employee compliance, whereas the excessive use of position power and particularly coercive power may result in resistance. The follower response most often generated by personal power is commitment to the organization's goals and objectives and that is what you, as leaders should be striving for in terms of the organizationâs mission.

Post your responses on the Discussion Board. They should be a minimum of 300 words, grammatically sound, and free from spelling errors. Be sure to comment or respond to at least two of you classmates' postings.

Discussion Questions: Select a present or past manager who has or had coercive power.

Give a specific example of how he or she uses or used reward and punishment to achieve an objective.

Overall, how effective is (or was) this manager at using rewards and punishment?

The Constitution requires that a census be taken every ten years and that based on the census the number of seats each state has in the House of Representatives will be reapportioned. So, the 435 seats in the House of Representatives are reallocated based on changes in each state's population as reflected in the Census. The Constitution also requires that after the reapportionment, the lines of each Congressional district will be redrawn to reflect the changes (if any) by STATE LEGISLATURES. That process is called REDISTRICTING. Your exercise today will help you learn about the issues that are important in the redistricting process and will give you a chance to try redistricting yourself. Good luck! Part I: Review the geopolitical issues of redistricting at the following website: http://www.wxxi.org/curriculum/redistrict/background/geopolitical.html#geopolitical (Links to an external site.) Click "Next Issue" at the bottom of the screen to advance to the next page. You may also want to print the chart out for your notes. Part II: http://www.redistrictinggame.org/index.php (Links to an external site.) Choose 2 missions and complete them. Write a brief reflection answering the following question: Based on your participation in the simulation, describe the ways that district lines can be manipulated based on caucus or party motivations. Evaluate the impact of redistricting on the quality of democracy.
