Coercion directly suggests threats and force, which is suggestive of toxic retribution. That is completely different than an ethical order from a supervisor to a subordinate to perform a job task directly related to their job or area of responsibility.
In my current job I am a manage of managers owning a small helpdesk department. When I need something done I tell my junior managers the task to accomplish and expect the results in a given time frame. I don't have to threaten harm or use fear as a tool, because that's hostile and toxic.
Perhaps instead you mean influence. Good leaders will attempt to realign the goals and thoughts of their staff to the goals of the work using rewards and positive reinforcement.
