Discussion of Readings
All articles address aspects of our big questions: What does it mean for a group to learn? What are some key dynamics that support/thwart it? What can leaders to do support it?
You decide the most meaningful goal & process of your group over the next 45min. You just need to distill out something that can serve toward a useful summary for the class.
. . . Think about all the strategies we’ve done and Perkins’ strategies. Pay attention to leadership!
7 Bases of Interpersonal Influence(based on French & Raven, 1959)
• Expert: power through knowledge & skill
• Referent : power through personal closeness; identification
• Legitimate: power through right of position, role
• Reward: power through positive reinforcement
• Coercive: power through punishment
• Informational: power through insider knowledge, culture
• Connection: power through social networks, relationships
Where do we see leadership?

Tension of leading Leadership is a social interaction of
influence, not a characteristic of an individual
Social influence has multiple bases
Positional: a legitimate right?Evaluative: ability to punish/reward? Expertise: special knowledge/skill?Kinship: closeness between individuals?Connectivity: ties in social network?
