This week’s content (see attachments) discussed some of the types of power that leaders yield, and the difference between transformational and transactional leadership. Consider and comment on the following questions:
Our school has a very large military student demographic. Consider the dynamic of legitimate power at work in the military. Do you think that legitimate power is a less-deserved or less-earnest power than some of the others discussed in the content? Is the predominance of legitimate power necessary to a military hierarchy? Why or why not?
On the subject of transformational leadership, how do you think followers can strike a healthy balance between credulity (in being manipulated by the charisma of a talented orator), and cynicism (in being overly-skeptical about the sincerity of a leader’s words and actions)?
