Which of the following is an appropriate use of reward power?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reward power is appropriate when the person in authority offers a reward, such as a promotion, a good schedule or a bonus for achieving goals or performing well. Choosing A is an example of rewarding an employee's good behavior.

B is an incorrect choice because it is an inappropriate use of coercive power. Taking away a raise is a punishment and is inappropriate if it has been promised to the employee for any length of time.

C is also an incorrect choice because it is an example of preferential treatment, not based on performance. This can lead to unfair treatment and demotivation among other employees.
