“…"I mean take Myers Briggs, everyone is an absolutely unique individual and I guess the fascinating part about it is that how do you as a manager get the combination right." This supports that writings of Lee et al (2010) and Millikin, Hom, and Manz (2010) Maturity of both the manager and employees will play a role. Management will be more likely to grant autonomy to employees that are responsible and reflect a high level of independence.…”

“…Certain trait-like tendencies are reasonably reliable in predicting whether individuals will lean towards control or autonomy management styles (Taylor, 2010;Lee, McInerney, Liem & Ortiga, 2010;Millikin, Hom & Manz, 2010). The higher the level of trust in a team or an organisation the less likely will be the need for monitoring and control (Langfred, 2004;Nayar, 2010).…”

Managers are frequently offered conflicting advice as to how to increase organisational success. One of these complex dilemmas is whether to grant employees autonomy, which may lead to self-management and empowerment or alternatively, exercise control which may enable managers to retain a well-focussed and goal driven workforce. This research focuses on the key factors that influence the various combinations of autonomy and control and their respective outcomes. Qualitative exploratory research was conducted using in-depth interviews with 16 leading South African management and Human Resource experts to uncover their insights regarding this dilemma. The findings suggest that combinations of autonomy and control can co-exist. Management are able to create environments with high levels of autonomy whilst simultaneously retaining high levels of monitoring and oversight when the management control is indirect. It was found that the seemingly contradictory practices of autonomy versus control are a paradox, not a dilemma. Seventeen factors were identified that influence the different levels of autonomy and control in organisations.

Research on intrinsic and extrinsic future goals has mostly focused on their impact on wellbeing with relatively lesser attention being focused on key learning outcomes. This study investigates how the pursuit of different future goals (i.e., society‐, family‐, career‐, wealth‐, and fame‐oriented goals) affects students’ self‐control, and whether self‐control mediates the relationship between future goals and distal learning outcomes (i.e., students’ affect to school and academic achievement 1 year later). The study adopted a longitudinal design involving 8,354 secondary students from 16 schools in Hong Kong. Students had to complete English and Mathematics achievement tests and answer questionnaires measuring the key variables. Structural equation modeling analysis indicated intrinsic future goals were more adaptive compared to extrinsic ones. In particular, results revealed the importance of society‐oriented goal on self‐control and distal learning outcomes. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
