question 2

Multiple Choice

Can Reward Power, as defined by Handy in 1985, be best described?

• A) It is used by an agent to reinforce a desired behaviour or to change a course of action towards something wanted by the agent. This means that, if the target agrees to the agent's request, they will be granted access to that resource, which may be as varied as money, love, or freedom.
• B) The wielder of such power is capable of either punishing or withholding benefits from the follower. Or at least the follower must perceive this to be the case-remember power does not have to be exercised to be influential.
• C) This form of power is associated with a role and perceived authority. Any hierarchical organization, such as an army or civil service, will have the manifestations of this present throughout the organization.
• D) This form of power correlates closely to the theme of charisma and more of a psychological nature. It may be for the purpose of being able to claim to be close to the person or be seen by others as having similar traits.
