Pastoral Authority

Where does the pastor get his authority to lead? What are the boundaries for this authority? Does the congregation have authority over the pastor's leadership? How far should the pastor assert this given authority as he conducts his church ministry?

For Scriptural reference one may wish to review Ephesians 4:11-12. What other Scriptures deal with this "pastoral authority" issue?
