QUESTION

Which strategy to manage planned change is nonparticipative and undemocratic?

1. Normative-reeducative
2. Empirical-rational
3. Power-coercive
4. Legitimate power

ANSWER:

Correct Answer: 3

The power-coercive approach is based on the application of power from a legitimate source and has minimal participation by target members. The normative-reeducative approach is based on the assumption that human motivation depends on the sociocultural norms and the individual’s commitment to these norms. The empirical-rational approach is based on two beliefs; that people are rational, and that they will change if it is in their self-interest. Legitimate power is not a strategy to manage change, rather it references the source of authority in a structured organization.
