Mashup

Power is seen to be held by a variety of groups in society (some of which are more powerful than others), who compete with each other. Since no one group or class is able to dominate all other groups (because of checks and balances
built into a democratic system of government), a "plurality" of competing interest groups, political parties and so forth is seen to characterize democratic societies. 
 
Power, in this sense, represents the capacity to mobilize general resources in society for the attainment of social goals. Thus, societies have general, collective, developmental goals (such as the desire to raise living standards, eradicate poverty
and so forth) and the more these goals are realized, the greater the levels of overall power that comes into existence in society.  
 
Power obviously is a pervasive reality in the life process of all modern-day organizations. Leaders regularly acquire and use power to accomplish specific work goals and to
strengthen their own positions vis-à-vis the reading of general or organizational goals. It is possible to see every interaction and every social relationship in an organization as involving an exercise of power
