Discussion Board: Organizational Behavior

You have recently been hired to lead a team comprised of relatively long term, experienced employees. Their performance has been generally satisfactory, however changes are coming and it will be your job to affect this change. As the "new sheriff" in town, what sources of power and influence are available to you? Which do you feel would be most successful and why? What are the potential consequences of your using the types of power and influence you identified? How do you think you would best be able to resolve any conflicts within the team?

All I need is a breif discussion answer. No lenghty response needed. However, I will need one source.
