Expert Power
3. Expert power
This type of power is based on a person’s superior skill or knowledge in a certain area of expertise. What areas are you an expert?
If you can’t recognise it, think to what people ask you to help with most often. is it helping to negotiate a contract or to do a risk analysis?
Ask others what areas they think you excel in, if you also enjoy doing these activities, you are well on your way to becoming an expert in that area.
No matter what skill/area you ultimately choose, deliberately practice becoming better to develop the area(s) of expertise, you will experience more power.
