Listen "Navigating Conflict: Knowing Your Locus of Control [Episode 74]"
Episode Synopsis
Who pulls our life's strings? We're breaking down "locus of control", which measures the amount of control someone feels over their life's events, ranging from an external locus (life controlled by fate, others, higher power) to an internal locus (you are fully in control). I'll share why misjudging your locus of control can cause more harm than good in conflict management, especially in professional settings where power, influence, and privilege play a significant role. Finally, I'll discuss the importance of contextualizing your locus of control within your "longer story" or career plan, understanding when to compromise, compete, or avoid, and how this strategic perspective can guide your conflict management actions.--- 🩵 About the Fast Forward Podcast: Welcome to the Fast Forward Podcast ⏩, where we accelerate entrepreneurs and business leaders from dreams to action.I'm Kalyn Romaine, a founder, organizational psychologist, and executive coach who has transformed Fortune 100 companies 📈, unicorn startups 🦄, and the largest local governments 🏙️ for more than 15 years. 💜 I share practical intellectualism with a splash of witty wisdom about business transformation, leadership development, and HR insights🔔 Subscribe and click the notification bell for new episodes and join me every week to evolve.🟪 Explore the Forward Collective Group: https://4wardcollective.com⬜️ Stay Connected: 🔹 LinkedIn: @4wardcollective 🔹 Facebook: @4wardcollective 🔹 Instagram: @4wardcollective
