The Lion King

accord to French and Raven, individuals confound five sources of indicator by which they screw belt on a nonher(prenominal)s to behave in accordance with their wishes. These five sources of power are arrogant powers, reward powers, legitimate powers, expert powers, and referent powers. In the movie, Lion King, an alpha male, the king of the jungle, which is a Lion name Mufasa, is killed by his jealous h unityst-to-goodness brother boodle. The planned death only worked due to the manipulation of Mufasas son, Simba, by oppose. After Mufasa dies, Simba runs away and Scar bespeaks experience of the overcharge Land. old age later Simba returns to the Pride Land to tell e rattlingone the truth, take fanny the control of his late fathers, once, great land, and to return it to its former nourishing state. So exactly what do these powers have to do with a Disney Movie? permits find out. Coercive power is the power to force psyche to do something that they do non regard to d o. This force could be any physical or mental torture. In the movie the The Lion King, when Scar takes over the Pride lands he uses coercive powers to make the lionesses hunt for the feed and to hold other dictatorial powers.In the movie, Scar even goes as far as hitting Simbas mother, because she compares him to Simba. He thrives on transfuse fear. Reward power is the power in which you are competent to bunk what you want because of bribery. The mortal that holds this power is the one who can control the other by giving them exactly what they want. The reward can be anything, that the soulfulness who is organism bribed desires. Also, this is non always negative. In the movie Nala, Simbas childhood friend, finds him after he has left his home for so long.She asks Simba to return home, unless it is evident after repeatedly asking that he does non want to return. So she uses reward power, even though the Pride Land is not her take inion, she tells Simba that he needs to re turn and if he does he can take back the Pride Lands and rule it as his father once did. And because of this logical system he returns. The next power is called a legitimate power, it is very ego explanatory. This individual holds a legitimate power, but only due to status. The person, though, forgets that the volume he or she is ordering around is not obeying them, but their status.Scar is again a accurate example of this. When he became the King of the Pride Lands he didnt realize that his subjects did not remark him, but his position. He kept this respect in his position, by using coercive powers, which is very common in legitimate power. Referent Power is a person possesses characteristics that makes someone else aspire to be like them. Therefore this person is automatic to do whatever the person they aspire to be like wants them to do. This power can be either positive or negative. Mustafa and Scar both possessed referent power when it came to the young impressionable cub , Simba.In a positive aspect, Simba aspired to be as great as his father, hence the form Oh I Just cant wait to be King. He also, in a more negative note wanted to be accepted by his uncle Scar. This is how Scar was able to manipulate Simba into tricking his father to copy him to the canyon, where Mustafa fell to his death. The last power is expert power. This power is exhibited when the person has intimacy that someone else wants. The most prominent example of this power, throughout the entire pretend would be Rafiki, the baboon.He was the kings advisor, led Simba back to the practiced path, and then became Simbas advisor, once he became king. According to Katz an outstanding leader must(prenominal) possess these troika skills technical skills, human skills, and conceptual skills. technological skills are when the person understands specific work and activities and are able to outperform in them. Human skills are when the leader is able to work hearty with other pack, they are able to exchange ideas and work together towards one goal. Conceptual skills are when the person is able to put ideas into actions.However, not everyone is perfect most people dont possess all of these skills. If I had to choose one of the skills that a leader must possess, it would have to be human skills. Now it is possible for a leader to be in charge without possessing human skills but things tend to work better if the person heading the community or judicature is able to get along with his citizens and co-workers. If the leader is able to get along with other people then there go out be no need for real conceptual skills because his subjects and co-workers will scrape up with ideas that he will be able to work out with others to put into place.In the movie, Mustafa possessed human skills everyone in his body politic liked him. Therefore, it was easier for him to run his kingdom, unlike Scar. Scar ran the kingdom, but did not have that human skill which made it har d for him to completely have the kingdom on his side. Thus, the kingdom was ready to fight against him as curtly as Simba returned because they didnt like Scar he didnt possess that human skill. Some people believe that if your kingdom loves you, the respect will come and then is when you will become a good leader.This was the leaders styles practiced by Mustafa and his son Simba. They treated the other animals with respect and that respect was returned allowing the kingdom to run peacefully. Scar, on the other hand, had a different docket he just needed to instill fear in his subjects to experience respect. But in actuality, it made them hate him, this did not help him in the end, when Simba returned, his subjects were eager to fight against Scar. If an enemy undermines a leader sometimes he doesnt realize the leaders support system.A bang example exhibited in the movie is when Scar undermined his brother Mustafa. Scar sham all he had to do was kill Mustafa and the kingdom wou ld just come to him, but he undermined Mustafas support system, his wife, Simba, Rafiki, and the rest of the kingdom, once Simba came back the entire kingdom rebelled. An organizational leader should use all three of the skills that they need to posses to their utmost ability. An organizational leader should always keep their enemies close.The worse the enemy the closer he should be kept so you can know what they are up to. As anyone who has experienced life knows it is not wise to run away from your tasks. It is always best to confront them. If you do not confront or resolve they will eventually peer up with you. The uniform holds true for a leader. A leader must never run from their problems, because all they are doing is prolonging the problem. This makes it worse because when you prolong a problem now the likelihood of others being influenced negatively increases.Such is the font in this movie. When Simba fled his homeland eventually his problem caught up with him because h e did not nip it in the bud, (confront it). Instead he chose to run from it. When his father was killed he should have stayed and told his people what really happened. When Simba ran he actually made the problem worse because it allowed his uncle, Scar (who was actually the problem) to lie to the people and claim the throne. The people did not trust or respect Scar and his bad lead showed in the famine that spread through the kingdom.When Simba finally went back and confronted his problem, (his uncle) the kingdom was restored. Just as in the movie, effective leadership is seen as being positive and ineffective leadership is seen as being negative the same applies to leadership in business organization. The analogous outcomes in business organization that are associated with effective and ineffective leadership respectively are fiscal success and growth of the companion especially global expansion and the company being in financial debt and downsizing.
