fertile in which each and every one can easily do their work in an effective manner (Bunderson
and Reagans, 2011). Usually, it is considered as the negative link but sometimes; it’s impacted
the organization positively. Apart from that, the power plays an imperative role in the proper
use of politics, which creates appropriate direction or path. It can be also referred as the

As Marks and Spencer is the major retailer brand of fashion clothing and it always seeks the
new way in order to provide trending clothing range to the people. They provide proper
effective training to their entire staff members and employees for developing their skill set. As
every working culture is influential and based on the values and beliefs and the culture of M&S

their work in an effective manner towards accomplishing the specified goals and objectives. The
power and politics within the sector have its significance that governs decision-making process
and encourages high productivity. Further, the positive power within the workplace helps in
encouraging and motivating the employees that also helps them to make the appropriate
decision regarding the goals and objectives. It boosts the confidence among employees so that
