THE WEEDS
INDIVIDUAL AND INFORMAL

THE ROCKS
INDIVIDUAL AND FORMAL
Power:
from individual actions and “formal” authority, like
roles and titles
bolstered by formal ties to important groups
(membership on important board or in group)
To navigate:
Use formal source of power, whether authority or
relationship
Rational argument, like “Leaving a legacy”—how do
you want to be remembered?
