Where does expert power come from?

  1. From an individual’s knowledge, skills, experience

  2. From the number of stakeholders an individual knows

  3. From the position one holds within an organization

  4. From the lesson learned documentation one produces

The correct answer is: From an individual’s knowledge, skills, experience

Expert power comes from an individual's knowledge, skills, and experience. This allows them to be seen as an authority or expert in a particular subject by others. Option B is incorrect because the number of stakeholders an individual knows does not necessarily equate to expertise. Option C is incorrect because position or title does not automatically give someone expert power. Option D is incorrect because producing lesson learned documentation does not necessarily indicate expertise, but rather reflects an individual's organizational skills.
