Power dynamics

Power dynamics refer to the way power is distributed and exercised within relationships and social structures. It involves understanding how individuals or groups influence each other, where some may hold authority or control while others may be in subordinate roles. These dynamics can occur in personal relationships, organizations, and broader societal contexts. Factors such as age, gender, culture, and social status can affect power dynamics, leading to conflicts, negotiations, or cooperation. Recognizing these dynamics helps us understand interactions, conflicts, and the flow of influence in various settings.
