What does penalty power result from?

  1. Ability to take away something of value

  2. Project manager's personal characteristics

  3. Ability to give something of value

  4. Assessment of stakeholders

The correct answer is: Ability to take away something of value

Penalty power results from the ability to take away something of value, such as privileges or resources. This is different from the project manager's personal characteristics (option B) as it relates to their skills, traits, and experience. Additionally, the ability to give something of value (option C) does not necessarily result in penalty power, as it could also result in reward power. Finally, while stakeholder assessment (option D) is important in project management, it does not directly result in penalty power.
