1. Using the dimensions of empowerment in the book (pp. 412-417), analyze the degree to which people in your work environment are empowered. Then, looking at the first box in figure 12.3, describe the approach your supervisor or manager uses when making key decisions. Considering the article link in this module, is there a “team of rivals” present? Finally, with respect to both participation in decision-making and team member empowerment, what strategies would you change if you were put in charge? Consider all of figure 12.3 and pages 366-368 in chapter 10.

2. Do you personally experience yourself as powerful, powerless, or both? On what do you base your perceptions? Base your answer on the specific symbols of power in the textbook pp. 403-404.

3. Who is the most powerful person you know personally? What is it that makes the person so powerful? Does this person’s power work with or against empowerment?
Base your answer on French and Raven’s five specific interpersonal forms of power (pages 397-398), and the textbook’s addition of “information power” (page 398) as
a sixth form.
