Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Individuals with an internal locus of control believe that they have control over their own lives and that their actions can influence outcomes. Therefore, it's best to allow employees with an internal locus of control considerable leeway in determining how to perform their work. Micromanaging them or closely supervising them may make them feel that they don't have control over their own work, which could decrease their motivation and performance. Additionally, they may feel insulted if you provide frequent job instructions as they may feel they already know what to do. It's important to trust employees with an internal locus of control to take initiative and complete assigned tasks in their own way.
