What is affiliation power?

  1. Authority over project resources

  2. Power from one's position in the organization

  3. Power that results from whom you know

  4. Control over the project budget

The correct answer is: Power that results from whom you know

Affiliation power is a type of power that results from whom you know. It is based on the relationships and networks individuals have within and outside the organization. In contrast, the other options do not define affiliation power. Authority over project resources refers to legitimate power, power from one's position in the organization refers to positional power, and control over the project budget refers to reward power or resource power.
