ABSTRACT
Organizational
power politics permeates all actions within an organization. Power is one
person’s ability to exert change on another person’s way of life and actions.
Using power is a valuable means to influence and achieve intended desires and
future action in others. Power is instrumental; it’s a means to achieve goals
other than the attainment of power itself. Power may also be expressed as
one person’s dependence on another. Power can, and sometimes is, a goal; its
basic use is instrumental in the achievement of one’s goals or aims. This paper
is part of a descriptive analysis section from a study conducted on
organizational power and leadership. The researcher gathered insights into the
lived experiences of like-minded sample of respondents as they described
organizational power politics and how they view and use power in their various
leadership positions
KEYWORDS
