, Management of Power 2
The power of persuasion is the influence that is generated by a leader's style or persona.
A good leader shows empowering behavior when he/she highlights the importance of work,
facilitates participative decision making, encourages improved performance, and removes
obstacles encountering effective work outcomes (Haq et al., 2019). Power and leadership,
however, are often interconnected. For example, a person can exert power without being a
leader. But an individual cannot be a leader without having power. The purpose of this paper is,
therefore, to identify and articulate leadership styles that support my style of management with
respect to power at my disposal as a nurse executive at Saint Louis Medical Center (SLMC). I
will compare and contrast the organizational structures which might influence the management
of power in my role as an executive.
Leadership Styles
Empowering subordinates may mean sharing the power with them by giving them
additional responsibilities and a share in the decision-making process. Along with making the
team members engaged, they would also be provided with the needed resources to complete their
tasks (Chapman et al., 2014). Leadership styles, however, are intended to facilitate this decision-
making through training, coaching, information, and emotional encouragement. The two
leadership styles that would engage and empower the staff at SLMC would be democratic and
transformational. The democratic leader encourages participation and the exchange of ideas for
the team. The most unique feature of this leadership style is that communication is open between
upper management and the frontline staffers. On the one hand, this leadership style tends to
encompass fairness, competence, creativity, courage, intelligence, and honesty (Chapman et al.,
