Navigating Conflict: Knowing Your Locus of Control [Episode 74]

Fast Forward Podcast by Kalyn Romaine | Forward Collective Group

Episode notes

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.
