Read the article $$Power Play$$ by Pfeffer $(2010),$ then reflect on the next questions and record your responses in your learning journal.

Questions:

Why would Laura Esserman have some roadblocks in pushing her change initiative about accelerating the treatment of women$$s cancer, although she was the centre$$s director?

In the context of Laura, what does the following mean: $$Where you stand depends on where you sit$($Pfeffer$,2010,$ p$.86)?$

What is the strategy of $$Advance on multiple fronts$($Pfeffer$,2010,$ p$.89)$ about? How did Laura use this strategy?

What is the strategy of $$Make the first move$$ about $($Pfeffer$,2010,$ p$.90)?$

How did Laura use the strategy of $$Don$$t draw unnecessary fire$($Pfeffer$,2010,$ p$.91)?$

Can you think of a moment that you have used or could have used any of these strategies to accomplish something at work, school, home, or any recreational activity?
