Power

Ted Stephenson

Chapter 4 in Management: A Political Activity, 1985, pp 65-85 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Underlying organisational politics is power. This power finds expression in relationships of the kind where one manager has the means, and is willing to use them, to get another manager to act in a manner which is contrary to that manager’s interests. In consequence it is characterised by resistance and conflict.
