Question

Fred always announces his decisions at weekly staff meetings. he doesn't waste time asking for employee input because he already knows what he wants to do. this reflects ________, the lowest level of empowerment.

Answer 1

The correct answer is authoritarian power.
Fred is an authoritative leader, which means that he has all the power and is unwilling to delegate it to his employees. He doesn't really want to hear their input because he already knows what he wants to do so he doesn't care about their opinions - his decision is the final.
