For those who have been empowered:

  • Describe how you were empowered at your job and how this made you feel as an employee.

For those who have not been empowered:

  • Provide your opinion of why your company does not embrace the concept of employee empowerment.
  • Chapter 14 of the textbook identifies four preconditions that are necessary for empowerment. Identify and explain which two preconditions are lacking in your company and how they impede the empowerment process.
