    The five bases of power are coercive power, reward power, legitimate power, expert power, and referent power. Three of these powers are formal powers and two of these powers are personal powers. The three types of formal power are coercive, reward, and legitimate power. Coercive power is dependent upon fear of negative results. Reward power is dependent upon positive rewards or benefits. Legitimate power is dependent upon a person’s structural position or ranking position in an organization. The two types of personal power are expert power and referent power. Expert power is based upon one’s experience and knowledge of a skill or trade. Referent power is based upon one’s personal traits and likeable resources. Personal bases of power seem to be more effective in the workplace structure because they are “positively related to employees’ satisfaction with supervision, their organizational commitment, and their performance” (Robbins & Judge, 2009). These bases of power affect communication in the Colstrip Electric organization tremendously. There are 10 people in the same office as me, and all of them use different bases of power to accomplish their duties. Some of my coworkers are more successful because their use of the bases of power is more effective.…

    Individual communication is one-on-one interaction with another. Individual communication allows for continuous feedback based on each person’s input. The communication that takes place between two individuals is very specific to each other’s responses. Since the flow of communication is continuous, individuals have a better understanding of each others thoughts and opinions and can respond directly back to each other. In contrast, group communication is contact between more than two people in a group. Group communication is more than one person communicating to a group; it is many people interacting together.…

    When debating on a topic or pacific subject I prefer to debate one on one, but that is not the only way debating is done it is also done in groups and this can be a benefit in some situations and can also be a problem in some cases. When having a group debate it gives you a broad approach with having more than two people opinion, it’s going to be a harder fight, but you will get more than one standpoint on the argument. A group debate also provides diversity amongst the topic, the argument should still be based on facts and proven research but will also be debated different due to different peoples approach. Another benefit that I can see with a group debate may be strength in numbers if the group is one sided on the debate they can outnumber the opponent and win the argument they can also help brain storm and recognize different weaknesses in the opposing argument. This strength in numbers can be both a benefit and a drawback it just depends on what side of the argument you are on. I have never been in a group debate but I have seen a few on T.V. and from what I have seen it is hard to get your thoughts completed before someone is trying to respond to what you just said and when trying to wait for someone to finish their thought you may forget what you wanted to rebuttal or someone else may jump in front of you and now you have more than one comment that you want to respond to. When dealing with groups it’s a lot to process at one time and you have to be on your toes because you have more than one opponent coming at you. There seem to be an equal number of benefits as drawbacks in group debates I also think that the topic is a factor if it is a broad topic then it should be for a group debate and if it is for a narrow topic then it should be one on one.…

The winners of the contest will have $25,000 donated to the company, an all-expense paid trip to the destination of their choice and bragging rights. The ages of the members in this group do not vary much; from the ages of 35 years old to 42 years old. The genders are 6 male and 4 female.

Must have a high school education or equivalent and D. Must be an actively full-time or part-time employee of the Department of Public Works.

The team has 2 months in order to execute a plan for a float. This is the same team that have entered and won 4 years in a row. This group is very homogenous and will not divert from its previous plan. They do not listen to outside opinions or associate themselves with anyone who may have different ideas from the previous years. They have years of experience in this regard and several of them have worked for this company since graduating high school.…

    In the first stage of group development the members begin by defining what will be acceptable behavior. This stage of development is forming and is complete when the members feel as though they are a part of the group. Without this stage the group would not be able to hold the members accountable for their actions. The second stage of group development is storming. It is an intragroup conflict that will emerge (Robbins & Judge, 2007). In storming the group members begin to resist limitations placed on the group. Knowing boundaries is important in making the most out of the resources that are available. Storming is complete when a clear chain of command can be made. The third stage in group development is norming. In this stage the members of the group begin to form relationships, work cohesively and have a strong sense of group identity. When the group becomes solid and all members agree on how each member should behave the development can move into the next stage of carrying out tasks. This fourth stage is…
