List and briefly define any three of the five sources of a leader's power.

The sources of a leader's power are the same as those of a manager's power: legitimate,reward,coercive,referent,and expert power.Legitimate power comes from the leader's position in the organization,and refers to the ability to influence followers because the leader has the right to request they do something,and they have the obligation to comply.Reward power comes from the leader's ability to provide something positively desired by followers in return for behaviors the leader expected and wanted.Coercive power is the potential to influence others through the use of sanctions or punishment.Referent power usually is associated with individuals who possess admired personal characteristics,such as humility,integrity,and courage.It is manifest when followers engage in behaviors because they admire the leader,want to be like the leader,and want to receive the leader's approval.Expert power is manifest when followers engage in behaviors because they believe that the leader has special knowledge and knows what is needed to accomplish a goal or solve a problem.
