* "The company's CEO, with his dictatorial management style, was seen as an autocrat by many employees." (This sentence uses "autocrat" to describe someone who acts as a dictator within an organization.)

* "While the king held absolute power, his advisors were hesitant to call him an autocrat, preferring to describe him as a strong leader." (This sentence highlights the nuance in the word "autocrat" - while it implies absolute power, it doesn't necessarily have to be used in a negative way.)
